Ram Ghat Ujjain – Sacred Bathing Ghat on Shipra River
Ram Ghat is one of the most significant and bustling ghats situated on the banks of the holy Kshipra River in Ujjain. It is a sacred bathing spot and holds immense religious importance, especially during the grand Kumbh Mela, when millions of pilgrims gather here to take a holy dip. The belief is that bathing in the Kshipra at Ram Ghat cleanses one’s sins and paves the way for spiritual liberation.
The ghat is named after Lord Rama, who is believed to have visited Ujjain during his exile. Surrounded by temples and ashrams, Ram Ghat is a vibrant spiritual hub that remains active throughout the day with rituals, prayers, and religious discourses. Early mornings and evenings here are particularly mesmerizing, as devotees offer diyas (lamps) to the river, creating a magical reflection on the water.
Ram Ghat is also the heart of the Simhastha Kumbh Mela, where ceremonial bathing takes place. Apart from religious activities, it serves as a peaceful spot for meditation, yoga, and enjoying the tranquil flow of the river. The combination of spiritual energy, cultural vibrancy, and scenic beauty makes Ram Ghat not only a pilgrimage destination but also a soulful experience for every visitor to Ujjain.
