At which ghat in Puri is Asthi Visarjan performed?

Asthi Visarjan in Puri is performed at Swargadwar, which translates as the Gate of Heaven. This is the cremation and ash immersion ghat on the southern shore of Puri town, right on the edge of Mahodadhi (the Bay of Bengal). The ghat is within sight of the town centre and approximately 2 km from Puri railway station. For most Asthi Visarjan rituals, the ashes are immersed in the ocean at Swargadwar. Some families also perform Pitru Tarpan at the Sweta Ganga, a sacred tank within the Jagannath Temple complex, which is considered connected to the holy Ganga itself. Local teerth purohits are present at Swargadwar to guide families through the ritual. After the immersion, many families walk to the Jagannath Temple for darshan and make additional offerings for the departed soul.
