History & Significance of Sarveshwar Ghat
English
The Sarveshwar temple — Shiva as the Lord of all — stands above the ghat. In the eighteenth century the temple was restored, and the ghat took its present form in the same work. The steps are small and smooth, easy to hold. Between Pandey and Digpatia Ghats, it is a quiet corner away from the great sights. Neighbourhood families alone bathe here regularly.
हिन्दी
सर्वेश्वर, अर्थात सबके ईश्वर, शिव का यह मंदिर घाट के ऊपर स्थित है। अठारहवीं शताब्दी में मंदिर के जीर्णोद्धार के साथ यह घाट भी अपने वर्तमान रूप में बना। सीढ़ियां छोटी और चिकनी हैं, जिन पर पकड़ सहज रहती है। पांडेय और दिगपतिया घाटों के बीच बसा यह घाट बड़े दृश्यों से दूर एक शांत कोना है। पड़ोस के परिवार ही यहां नियमित रूप से नहाते हैं।
