The Soul of
Mirzapur & Vindhyachal
The riverside stone ghats of Vindhyachal and Mirzapur city descend gracefully to the Ganga's edge. Used daily for ritual bathing, boat rides, and sacred oblations beside the Vindhyavasini Shakti Peeth.
During Dev Deepawali (Kartik Amavasya/Diwali), the ghats transform into a sea of light — thousands of earthen diyas set afloat on the water.
