The Ganges River, which is popularly known by its own Hindu name—Ganga, is the symbol of India’s ancient culture and civilization. This river is the most sacred river in Hinduism. People believe that taking a dip into the water of the Ganges will purify their souls from all committed sins in the past, so they can go to heaven. The Ganges River flows from the top of the southern side of the Himalayas in the state of Uttarakhand. In the article, “Ganges River,” the author Jay Yett says, “The Ganges River flows about 2,500 kilometers across the Gangetic Plain and through a coastal delta in Bangladesh to empty into the Bay of Bengal.” Not only does it provide water to India, but also to Bangladesh. The major cities that rely on the water of the Ganges are Varanasi, Kolkata, Haridwar, Allahabad, Patna, Kanpur, and Ghazipur. Today, this river is one of the most polluted rivers in the world. According to the article, "Metal and Pesticide Pollution Scenario in Ganga River System," Srikanta Samanta reports that there has been a huge increase in pollution compared to the 9,000 tons in 2009.

British novelist and poet, Lawrence Durrell once said ‘We are the children of our landscape; it dictates behaviour and even thought in the measure to which we are responsive to it’. Human beings are multifarious individuals who experience the real, remembered and imagined landscapes that surround them in emotional and personal ways. The strength and lasting impact of landscapes determines the ability of the human psyche to be transformed and the uniquely personal sense of belonging individuals create with landscapes.
