Narmada Maha Aarti Ghat

Narmada Maha Aarti Ghat is a riverfront ghat on the Narmada River at Ekta Nagar (Kevadia) in Narmada district, Gujarat. Developed as part of the Statue of Unity tourism circuit near Sardar Sarovar Dam, it hosts a daily evening Maha Aarti inspired by Ganga Aarti. The illuminated stepped ghat, promenade and river views make it a central cultural and spiritual gathering place for visitors to Ekta Nagar.

Visitors can expect a wide stepped ghat and paved riverfront promenade on the banks of the Narmada River. The area features tiered seating steps leading to the water, decorative lighting, and open viewing spaces. In the evening, priests perform the daily Maha Aarti with lamps, chants and music. Visitors can watch the ceremony, take photographs, enjoy river and sunset views, and stroll along the promenade.

Developed as part of the Ekta Nagar (formerly Kevadia) integrated tourism development around the Statue of Unity and Sardar Sarovar Dam. The ghat was created to provide a dedicated riverfront venue for cultural and spiritual activities for visitors to the Statue of Unity circuit.

The Narmada River is revered as a sacred river in Hindu tradition. The daily Maha Aarti, modeled on the Ganga Aarti, offers a devotional and cultural experience with lamps, prayers and music, serving as a spiritual gathering for visitors and locals.
