One of the reasons why the Ganges is revered in India is the fact that it is sanctified by the feet of Lord Vishnu,palm of Brahma and Head of Shiva.
When Lord Vishnu took the form of Trivikrama during Vamana Avatar, He scaled the Heavens and Brahma washed His feet with His Palm.
Vamana as He measured the world is called Trivikrama, One who Has won the three worlds.
He blessed Mahabali and granted his desire to visit his Kingdom once in a year.
This day is celebrated as Onam festival in Kerala.
