Har Ki Pauri: History | Importance | Puja and Rituals | Festivals

<p>The origin of Har Ki Pauri is not easy to ascertain since the place is ancient and dates back to Pre Vedic times. However many schools suggest that it was established in its current form by King Vikramaditya who built this sacred ghat in the 1st century BC in memory of his brother Bharthari. He used to come here to meditate on the banks of the river Ganga.</p> <p>Several temples were built on the steps of the ghats. And most of them were built in the late 19th century. An extension of ghats took place by Pandit Hargyan Singh Katara, a Zamindar of Agra in 1938. Later it was again renovated in 1986.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/utsav-app/har-ki-pauri-history-importance-puja-and-rituals-festivals-5ecf26e8ac3e"><strong>Read More</strong></a></p>
