Nigambodh Ghat: Background on Final Journey and Last Ride Funeral Services

Nigambodh Ghat is one of Old Delhi’s most historic and fabled cremation ghats and has been a point of departure for countless journeys to eternity. Located along the banks of the Yamuna River, it is far more than a cremation facility, a site of veneration funerary and other traditions. Families in sorrow and mourning the loss of a loved one are required to perform the Antim Sanskar – the final ceremony, and are guided through various steps of customs, traditions, and the care and empathy required to perform the in-depth final rites.
