These ghats lining the banks on the River Mandakini are the focal point for pilgrims, who make holy dips at dawn before returning at the end of the day for the evening aarti (an auspicious lighting of lamps/candles). It's an interesting place to stroll, with sadhus, dancers and coloured lights lending a carnival atmosphere, and you can take short boat trips up and down the river.
