Tigri Ganga Ghat

Tigri Ganga Ghat is a prominent riverbank pilgrimage site on the western bank of the Ganges River at Tigri village in Amroha district, Uttar Pradesh. It is known as a sacred bathing ghat where devotees gather for holy dips, especially during Kartik Purnima. The ghat features stepped embankments, open river views and temporary fair grounds during festivals, serving as an important religious and cultural gathering place in western Uttar Pradesh.

Visitors can expect a wide stepped ghat descending to the Ganges River with open sandy banks and expansive river views. The site consists of concrete steps, bathing areas, and open grounds used for gatherings. On regular days it is a quiet pilgrimage spot for bathing and prayer, while during Kartik Purnima it becomes crowded with pilgrims, temporary stalls, and fair activities. Facilities are basic and the environment is open and exposed to the elements.

Tigri Ganga Ghat has long served as a traditional bathing ghat on the Ganges and is associated with longstanding pilgrimage traditions in the region. It has developed over time as a local religious centre with stepped ghats constructed to facilitate ritual bathing for devotees.

The ghat holds religious significance for Hindu devotees who consider a dip in the Ganges here auspicious, particularly on Kartik Purnima, Amavasya and during other bathing festivals. The annual Tigri Mela (Kartik Mela) attracts large numbers of pilgrims and is a major cultural and religious fair for Amroha and surrounding districts.
