While Rishcash is a particular magnet for visitors from the west, where we're heading next is a major draw for Indian tourists. -Beautiful Ganges, *** is here. Meeting a friend who's guided me around India before. He suggested we meet at the statue of God Shiva. He says, you won't miss it. OK, he was right. I've travelled in other parts of India on a couple of previous trips with Abura.
-Abura! -Hello, Simon! -And you said we won't miss Shiva. -Yeah!
-Look at the size of it! Colossal 1! He is one of the central gods in Hinduism. -Shiva is most revered 2 and most feared, because he is the lord of destruction, and he's also the creator, because we believe every creation begins from destruction. So he destrorys before he creates. -It's a powerful role.
-Yeah.
