Ganga Aarti at Triveni Ghat in Rishikesh

The confluence of three major sacred rivers, the Ganges, Yamuna and Saraswathy, Triveni Ghat is Rishikesh's most revered sacred bathing spot and is located on the banks of the Ganges. It is believed that those who bathe in the Triveni Ghat experience salvation and liberation from all their sins. The water here has the power to purify them. Devotees make many offerings at the Triveni Ghat, donate milk to the river early in the morning at sunrise, and happily feed the ghat fish. A striking view of the floating lamps on the river as part of the Aarti ceremony is a feast for the eyes after sunset. The Triveni Ghat has an important place in Hindu mythology and puranas and is also mentioned in the Hindu epics Ramayana and Mahabharata. Lord Krishna is believed to have been wounded by an arrow shot by the hunter Jala while visiting this sacred place.
