HARIDWAR
The Gate Way Of Heaven

MANASA DEVI MANDIR

It is one of the prime attractions to the tourists and pilgrims as well. Built atop the Siwalik Hills, it commands a grand eyeful sight throughout-lay and night, from any point of the town, and also for miles around. It can be reached by flights of stairs, or cable cars. The rope way with its brightly coloured cars affords a thrilling and unforgettable experience, and it lands the devotees right at the feet of Devi, one of the forms of Sakti Goddess. The presiding deity Manasa Devi is looking upon the city from this vantage point to raining her benignity round the clock. The gongs tolling sonorously during mornings and evenings seem like peals of divine bells of the Mother, reminding people to remember and worship her for salvation. The white marble statue of the mother wrings veneration. The restaurants and shops catering snacks etc., detain the visiting public for hours enjoying the beautiful sights of Haridwar and its surroundings. She is very popular for her compassion, as evidenced by the fulfillment of desires of every adorer.
