Bheemgoda Tank Haridwar

Surrounded by a lush green garden, Bheemgoda Tank is one of the Haridwar's most sacred sites. The primary source of water for the Bheemgoda Tank is the Ganges river, which flows through small streams. The term ‘Bhimgoda’ is derived from two words- Bhim, the legendary hero and goda, a Hindi word for the knee. According to the legends, while moving to the Himalaya, the Pandavas stopped in Haridwar to drink water and Bhimgoda is the place where Bhima drew water from the rocks by thrusting his knee (goda). Nearby the Bheemgoda Tank is a dam, which is currently a prominent tourist attraction in Haridwar.
