Topography: Bangladesh is located on the delta plain of the lower Ganges, Jamuna and Meghna rivers in the northeastern part of the South Asian subcontinent. The delta is low-lying and has a dense network of rivers, with plains accounting for 85% of the country's land area, and hilly areas in the southeast and northeast, with water surface accounting for about one-tenth of the country's land.

During the rainy season, large areas of land are submerged under water, presenting the scenery of a water country. The highest peak is Keokla East Peak, which is 1,229 meters high.

The Ganges is a pure and holy river in the minds of believers, despite the fact that the water is quite turbid. However, believers still believe that bathing in the Ganges cleanses themselves to wash away their impurities and sins.

As a result, Hindu believers regard this place as the entrance to heaven, and they bathe in the Ganges River at least once in their lifetime, so more than a million Hindus come here every year to bathe and cleanse themselves and hold large religious gatherings.

Every morning, thousands of Hindus, young and old, men and women, both local and foreign, come to the Ganges and walk into the Ganges with devotion to take a bath in order to wash away the filth or sins of their bodies with holy water, and to achieve their desire to live beyond the mortal world and to live forever in heaven after death.

It is in this way that Hindus reverently regard the use of Ganges water to "wash away their faults" as a great comfort and honor. On both sides of the crescent-shaped bay in the city of Varanasi, successive dynasties built 64 piers of various sizes for people to worship in ice baths.

In the mountains, the terrain drops sharply from 3,150m to 300m, and the rapids are turbulent. After the two rivers converged near Devobreyag, they were called Ganges. By the time the Ganges River reached Allahabad, the altitude had dropped to 120m.

The upper section of the river is bounded by Herdwal, and the upper section of the river passes through the West Walik Mountains, with mostly rocky beds, narrow channels, and many rapids; The following sections of the river enter the plain, the river surface widens, sediment accumulates, and there are many swamps and low-lying areas on both sides of the river, and the course is often diverted during the rainy season. In the dry season, the flow rate is 200m seconds; In the rainy season, the flow rate reaches 5680m seconds.

Water conservancy

The Ganges River is rich in water conservancy and hydraulic resources. In the tenth year of Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty (1531), after the construction of the famous Qiangong weir, Wangong weir and Yongfeng weir were built one after another. In 1957, the Henghui Canal was built, with an irrigation area of 10,000 mu.

After 1961, the first hydropower resources of the Ganges River were used to build small water lapping power stations in Yeping and Dahe.

It originates from Qiaoting Township, Yeping Town, Hanbin District, Ankang City, Shaanxi Province, and flows through Yeping Town, Zhongyuan Town, Bauhinia Town, Dahe Town, and flows out of Dawangmiao in Qiangong Township, Hengkou Town, and joins the Moon River at the east end of Hengkou Town.

The Indus and Ganges are two of the most important rivers in the Indian subcontinent, and they flow through numerous cities and important cultural areas. Although both the Indus and Ganges rivers originated in the Himalayas, they flow in different directions and join the ocean in different places, so they are not the same river. The Ganges flows south through India and Bangladesh and eventually joins the Bay of Bengal, while the Indus flows west through India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan and joins near the Indian Ocean.

Although the Indus and Ganges rivers are not the same rivers, they both play an important role in India's culture and religion. The Ganges is widely regarded as the holy river of Hinduism, and millions of devotees travel to the river every year to bathe in order to bless and cleanse themselves from their sins. The Indus River runs through many historical and cultural sites of Indian civilization, including the Harappan civilization and the Mughal Empire, and is one of the symbols of Indian culture.

In conclusion, the Indus and Ganges, although different in origin and flow direction, have an important place in both Indian and South Asian cultures. Both rivers contribute to the historical and cultural heritage of India, whether they are historical and cultural sites or religious worshippers, and carry on the ancient civilization of India.
