Set along the banks of the holy River Ganges, Varanasi represents the ultimate site of pilgrimage, life, and transition. Witnessing the floating oil lamps at the evening prayers is a deeply moving experience.
Varanasi (also Banaras or Kashi) is believed to be one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world, dating back over 3,000 years. It is the sacred spiritual center of the Hindu universe.
Sunrise boat rides are the quietest and most scenic. Dress modestly with shoulders and knees covered when exploring old streets and temples.
"Discovery India Trips designed a flawless loop for us. Our private vehicle was immaculate, the driver was extremely professional and shielded us from pushy street sellers, and the guides made the history feel alive."- Richard & Clara Higgins, Sydney, Australia
