Varanasi the holy pilgrimage city is a spiritual hub among the Hindus. Nestled on the shore of river Ganges, people cremate their loved ones to free them from the vicious circle of life. The old city in the modern day lifestyle showcases the rich amalgamation of temples, ghats, restaurants and cafes. So I have decided to explore the ancient city embarking on a holiday trip. Visited by the throng of tourists from India and around the world, it is one of the most compelling tourist destination in India. While vacationing and exploring the crowded and chaotic locations the place is full of amazing attractions one could explore.

Dashashwamedh Ghat Arti, held at every evening at the Dashashwamedh Ghat is spiritually a mesmerizing site. The ambience is revered and the air is filled with a divine aroma of incense. The place is crowded and one can see the spectacular event from the boat sailing on the Ganges. The Kashi Vishwanath and Sankat Mochan temples standing tall are amongst the oldest and most revered ones. Also famed for their musical heritage people singing Thumri on the banks of river Ganges is just awesome. Savour the rich cuisine which is mostly vegetarian. Just 10km away is the divine sight of Sarnath where Gautam Buddha has preached after attaining enlightenment for the first time. Go for Uttar Pradesh Holiday Packages and revel into the divine and spiritual environment of Varanasi.
