Most people walked but we just didn’t have the time: we had a 6 hour drive back to Delhi.

We had to remove our shoes…the floor was kind of yucky.

The temple was very crowded.

Sandeep had bought these items to have blessed for his family at home.

Orange was the good luck color for Haridwar and for Shiva, I think.

Hari means “god” and dwar means door or gate so Haridwar is the place that is the gateway to god.

Then it was back to Delhi
