Haridwar, one of the holiest cities in India, welcomes every traveler with the gentle roar of the Ganga and the chants that echo along its Ghats. The city breathes devotion — in every aarti flame, every drop of water, and every bridge arching over the sacred river. Through these frames, I tried to snap Haridwar’s beauty in a day through a traveler's eye.
