HINDOO TEMPLE NEAR CURRAH, ON THE EASTERN BANK OF THE RIVER GANGES.
Currah was formerly a very considerable town, about one hundred miles above the city of Bernares, on the opposite side of the river. This temple, although built for the worship of Hindoo idols, is almost wholly in the Mahommedan style of design, as indeed are many other Hindoo temples.
The banks of the Ganges are here very lofty, steep, and picturesque; but are subject to considerable alterations in the rainy season, as the river then rises to the height of thirty feet.
