AboutManikarnika Ghat is the main burning ghat and is the most promising place for a Hindu to be cremated. It has a vast area where dead bodies are cremated here 24X7 and 365 days a year. Manikarnika Ghat has the tank known as the Manikarnika Well. Also, it has a slab of stone between the well and the ghat called the Charanpaduka that bears footprints made by lord Vishnu, which also has a temple dedicated to Ganesh. It is known that prayer is a holy place for the dead. Each variety of wood has a different price, with sandalwood being the most costly. Using just enough wood to completely incinerate a corpse is an art.
