Call Of The Ganga

Surrounded by the SHIVALIK range of the Himalayas on three sides. the Ganga in the lesser Himalayas does not flow wildly. Here she gurgles hurriedly to reach her destination.

There is only peace and quite around Ganga and the picturesque view of the Shivalik range with Ganga meandering around can just fill our whole being. The thought is enough for me to wish i was there now.

Things to do :

Plunge into adventure sport.

Visit Neelkant Mahadeva temple located on the hilltop of Swarag ashram, attend Ganga aarti held on the banks of the river and visit the “Jyotirlingam” at the Kashi Vishwanath temple. This famous 18th century temple recieved the first glimpse of the sun in April 2008. The natural illumination of the “Jyotirlingam” came after a 15 foot wall blocking sunlight to the temple was removed. The old golden temple is now brightly lit with the sunrays reaching every nook and corner. The “Jyotirlingam” was exposed to the sunrays probably for the first time in the history of the temple which was built by Queen Ahilya Bai in 1780 after the erstwhile temple was demolished by Aurangzeb in 1669.
