Things to Do in Varanasi

At sunrise, take a walk down the ghats (steps) that border the river to witness thousands of pilgrims praying, bathing or scattering ashes. The southern end of the Ganges is where worshipers perform rituals for Shiva Lingam, while the central areas are a popular launching point for boats.

Visit the most popular temple in the city, the Vishwanath Temple, to see its gold-plated tower and pay homage to Shiva. For more physical activities, om your way through a yoga class, indulge in a relaxing Ayurvedic treatment or unwind in the calmer surroundings of the nearby Nehru Park. And don’t forget to try the delicious cuisine. Foodies are spoilt for choice with the large selection of Indian dishes on offer. Be sure to devour Varanasi delights like mango lassi, tomato chat and creamy chickpea curries.
