Things you must do in Varanasi
Benares- just the mention of the city is capable of evoking so many emotions. Perhaps it is because the place happens to be the cradle of Indian civilisation, the holiest of the seven sacred cities, and a luminous seat of learning. While the city is primarily visited by pilgrims, and those seeking to attain salvation, a trip to Varanasi can also be more than just that. Here are a few things to do that will be worth the experience, and will make you want to visit Varanasi at least once. · Boat ride on the Ganges While this may sound ordinary, it is anything but that. The scenic beauty of the Ganges during dawn or dusk is unparalleled and cannot be matched by any corner of the world. A boat ride during the Aarti would be the best time, since you can see the place decorated with lights and diyas and witness the ‘city of lights’ in all its glory. The panoramic view of the river and the ghat is something that you must experience at least once in your life. ·
