History & Significance of Khori Ghat
English
The ghat sits squeezed between Raja and Pandey Ghats. Its name is tied to the lane of the Khori community behind it. The bustle of the great pilgrim groups has never reached here. The families of the quarter alone descend for the daily bath. The stairs are small and the lanes of the city begin right at the edge.
हिन्दी
यह घाट राजा और पांडेय घाट के बीच दबा-सा बैठा है। नाम पीछे की ओर बसी खोरी समुदाय की गली से जुड़ा है। बड़े तीर्थ-समूहों का चहल-पहल यहां कभी नहीं पहुंचा। मौहल्ले के परिवार ही रोज स्नान के लिए यहां उतरते हैं। सीढ़ियां छोटी हैं और शहर की गलियां बिल्कुल किनारे से शुरू हो जाती हैं।
