Vijayanagaram Ghat

Vijayanagaram Ghat

'Again a princely state's owned ghat, of the Vijayanagaram of South India, having Swami Karapatri Ashrama.'

 

This ghat is named after the erstwhile Vijaynagar princely state of South India. The ruler of this princely state provided funds for the construction of the ghat in 1890. At the top of it is a beautiful building called Svami Karapatri Asrama. Close by to this building are the shrines of Nilakantha and Nispapesvara, the temples dedicated to lord shiva. The ghat is found to be visited by the pilgrims to have a holy dip in river ganga.
