Named after the Goddess of Wisdom, Saraswati is a roaring, white tributary of the Alaknanda River that flows through Uttarakhand. In Mana, a village near Badrinath, the Saraswati River has a natural, stone bridge, Bhim Pul, over it—that serves as a passage towards Vasudhara Falls and Satopanth Lake. It is believed that Bhim Pul, made of huge rock-boulders, was laid down by the mighty Bhima, to help Draupadi cross the river.
