Kedar Ghat

Kedar Ghat

'Nest of sacred 'sanctorum sanctum'of Kedareshwara, the patron deity; along with a monastery built.'

 

Kedar Ghat was built by the Maharaja of Vijayanagar. The ghat is named after Lord Shiva, who is also known as ‘Kedarnath'. At the top exists the temple of Kedaresvara, the patron deity of the southern sacred segment. This temple is constructed in ancient Hindu architectural style. Located on the banks of river Ganges, Kedar Ghat is one of the famous pilgrimage places in the city of Varanasi visited by numerous saints and pilgrims. Near the Kedar Ghat, there is a Parvati Kund, which is a beautiful pond and is believed to have water with high medicinal properties.
