Ksemeshwara Ghat
Ksemeshwara Ghat
'Populous, popular ghat of the ever-sweet community of the Bengalis. It has shrines dedicated to Ksemeswara and Ksemaka Gana.'
It's often referred to as the Someshwara. Old name was Nala Ghat. This river staircase was built in early 18th century. The followers of Kumarasvami made a monastery in 1962 at the upper-side of the steps. The shrines of Kshemeswara and Ksemaka Gana are at the top portion of the steps. The neighborhood is dominated by Bengali residents and thus begins the 'Bengali Tola' neighbourhood.
