Holy place, quality of water is not good but, tradition is to take a bath in it and then go to baba baidyanath (shiv ji) temple. Administration have to clean the water.
It is a wonderful place in my view I gave 4 star because of the garbage in the shiv ganga and after that everything is quite interesting and quite good good place for worship
