In the immediate vicinity of the Har-ki-pairi itself, there are a number of narrow unventilated lanes and gullies ; but most of the buildings in the town itself are of masonry, and the principal thoroughfares are fairly broad and A DIFFICULT POSITION 237 well paved. In front, as already said, runs the river ; crossed at fair times by temporary bridges giving access to an island and the great forests extending up to the foot-hills of the Himalayan mountains. Behind, are low hills streaked at int...ervals with ravines running up into them, and covered with scrubby vegetation and trees of moderate size. To the east, are situated, at a little distance, the small towns of Kankhal and Jawalapore with cultivated fields about them ; while to the west lie the great forests and glades extending up the picturesque elevated valley known as the Dun. It will be seen, therefore, that Hardwar lies more or less isolated, with sylvan and jungle surroundings on three sides the last named furnishing, with shade and water readily available, very convenient halting-places, to the Indian rustic mind, for a temporary sojourn.
