    Haridwar (Gateway of God) is a must visit place in northern India and it’s around 250km from Delhi. Driving from Delhi to Haridwar very comfortable and there is many place to stop over and quick feed. There is thousands of hotel around this holy city for don’t get panic even at late night. Almost all shops are open till late and opens early in the morning, and don’t forget to have breakfast (famous puri and sabji). After your Ganga Snan (bath). Jai Maa Ganga🙏

    A wonderful weekend spend at Haridwar. We had a bath in Ganga and felt very light and energetic. Till the time we spend at Har ki pauri we forgot all over worries and problems. Beautiful and holy place.

    Excellent temple complex with many deities and Mansa devi is the main one. The cable car operators tried to force us to buy round tickets to both hill shrines
    Mansa & Chandi or else for only Mansa we have to wait long time. We didn't fall for it and finished darshan in normal time.

    It’s a very local experience not something that the average foreigner might pursue but we found it fascinating. Getting to the cable car requires an auto rickshaw which our hotel arranged. Once there the security staff kindly took us in Hand to guide us through the somewhat complicated arrangements to access cable car. It wasn’t exactly Swiss standard but worked. Once there we headed for the close by temple. It being a religious holiday we weren’t the only ones. It’s colourful and fascinating.

    This temple is central to the holiness of Haridwar and in the heart of Kankhal which the oldest part of town. Understanding the story of the death and commemoration of Lord Shiva’s wife is fascinating. The area has offices of the 13 Hindu cults/denominations and many ashrams. The walk along the water front of the Ganges is spectacular including sights of cremations.

    Spiritually vibrant environment with peace and tranquility. Participate in daily ashram activities starting about 4 am, to fully experience the environment and take benefits from it.

    Spiritual religious and holy place..mayadevi mata temple is one of the oldest temple but you will not find it in old looks because it was modified and renovate time to time.
    Mayapur name is old name of Haridwar so u know it would be based on Mata's name.
    Demerit-- everywhere you will find dirt , bad odour .
    Really disappointed from the government who has to maintain, people who live and travellers who visited here. It's everyone's responsibility to make the city clean..
