Kolayat’s practical map is short and learnable: changing blocks at the main ghat, food from the bazaar counters behind the ghats, and lakeside parking that fills on fair dates. Nothing at the site is far from anything else, so the logistics reduce to knowing which block does which job and when it is under load. The ritual side of the same ground is covered in the pilgrim facilities guide.
The practical map behind the facilities guide is set out below.
The map
- The changing rooms: the main-ghat blocks. Carry your own towel and lock.
- Food comes from the bazaar counters, where the turnover rules apply.
- The parking: the lakeside lots that the transport guide warns fill up on fair dates.
The practical map, block by block
- Changing rooms sit at the main-ghat blocks. They are basic, and the self-sufficiency rule applies: own towel, own lock, valuables left in the vehicle.
- Food runs on bazaar turnover: the high-volume counters near the ghat steps are the safe default, and they extend their hours during fair weeks.
- The parking constraint is the one to plan around. The transport guide is right about the lakeside lots on the fair dates; arriving before mid-morning or parking in the bazaar edge solves it.
