Man Mandir Ghat

The palace's ornate latticed windows (jharokhas) and carved stone balcony are frequently photographed from the river, standing out clearly against the plainer stone steps of neighbouring ghats. The site is also associated with the Someshwar linga, a form of Shiva worshipped at the ghat, linking the Rajput royal patronage of the building to an older layer of religious use on the same spot.

Its location directly beside Dashashwamedh Ghat makes it an easy and worthwhile stop to combine with a visit to the evening Aarti — arriving a little early to walk along Man Mandir's steps before the crowds build up at Dashashwamedh is a common way to see both without rushing.
