On the banks of the Ganga lies Haridwar, the center of the Hindu religion. During the Samudra Manthan, Haridwar is supposedly one of the sites where Amrit accidentally spilled. The spot where the drops fell is known as Har ki Pauri and it's believed that taking a dip in these ghats washes away one's sins. The city's Daksheshwar Mahadev Mandir is laden with the powers of Lord Shiva and will bind your soul to the supreme.
