One of the ancient ghats in Haridwar, the Birla Ghat is a pristine and tranquil site, situated adjacent to Vishnu Ghat. Situated on the banks of the pious River Ganga, there is a flight of stairs that lead towards the holy water, enabling the devotees to take a dip and absolve their sins, as is believed by many. Security barriers are installed near the flight of stairs to prevent people from drowning while bathing in the Ganga River’s strong water current.

There are multiple food joints and eateries too at Birla Ghat, making it a good place to visit if you wish to escape the maddening crowd of Har ki Pauri. Since Birla Ghat is a 5-minute walk from the Vishnu Ghat, both can be visited together. You can also reach the place using local transport in Haridwar.
