DESCRIBE AN IMPORTANT LAKE OR RIVER IN YOUR COUNTRY OR HOMETOWN

Which river body is that?

My country India is diverse, and so are the river forms. One of the most important rivers, also considered the most sacred is the River Ganga. It flows from the north of India to the neighboring country Bangladesh. 

How do you know about it?

I think I knew about this river, right from my childhood days, I just cannot remember when I knew. This river is perennial and the water is available throughout the year. The farmers use this water for irrigation and farming activities while people also enjoy doing adventurous activities like boating, kayaking, and rafting.

Why does it impress you so much?

This river has always impressed me. It has a lot of mythological stories associated with it, and is considered to be the most pure and auspicious, also, it is said that if you keep Ganga water at home, it takes away all the negativities and spreads a positive aura around. Apart from all these, I was even more impressed when I got the chance to sit silently across its banks, the gushing and running water was so soothing, it refreshed my soul and I could feel the bliss I was getting added. Sitting on the riverside and observing it carefully, I forgot all the ongoing anxieties of life and rejuvenated my mind in the best of manner.
