Varanasi by true means is one fine exhibit of the flamboyancy of India. It is one perfect destination to unwind. Flourishing on the banks of holy river Ganges, in the state of Uttar Pradesh the city is one of the most significant cities in the nation. It owns a huge religious significance, to the Hindus in particular. It is the earthy land of the Gods and one among the four most sacred cities in the nation that together are called as Char Dham. No where else in the nation one will find the never-ending pious milieu that exists in Varanasi. It is a regular sight in the city where the priests and pilgrims are busy in doing their share of rituals and religious acts.



Like mentioned above, among the Hindus the place owns a huge significance. For them, the place is the most auspicious place to die because it is believed that a death in the city lets one attain Moksha (the final liberation from the cycle of life and death). Each year the pilgrims and devotees flock to the city in tens and thousands, in search of tranquillity and peace of mind, soul, and body. The Hindu festivals are the peak tourism times in the city. It is during these time frames that city gets filled up-to-the-neck by tourists and pilgrims. These are also the times when prices of both the luxury as well as the budget hotels in Varanasi goes skyrocketing.



For those who are on religious break from the typical city life, Varanasi is a without doubt a destination to retreat, meditate, and spend the holiday listening the religious hymns every morning and evening. The pious ghats of river Ganges and the river itself helps the visitors to wash-off a lifetime of sins and rejuvenate. In addition, the city is evenly dotted by several revered Hindu temples that are the virginal venues for worshipping. Some among these are also good reference points for the architects and historians, as they belong to the medieval era. Besides, each temple in the city is a visual delight to the onlookers. Varanasi is simply a magical city but at times it may not be for the faint hearted as there are many intimate rituals, such as cremation are done in out open.



In addition to the dominating spiritual aspect, there are a couple of other tourism aspects in the city. If one has some time to spare then he could go shopping at the small-colorful markets of the city. Items related to religion, like religious books, God statues, bells etc. are quite popular.



Coming to the accommodation part, one thing that a visitor to the city can be certain of is content stay. There exists a huge range of hotels in the city ranging from cheap hotels in Varanasi to luxury hotels. This gives one plenty of options to choose from and select the hotel that best suits his budget, needs, and expectations. NADESAR PALACE, Ganpati Guesthouse, Rivatas By Ideal, The Gateway Hotel Ganges, and Rahul Guest House are some of the finest accommodations in the city to consider.


Also one important thing, while you choose and select a hotel, do check for the hotels that offer different tour packages. There are a couple of hotels in the city that offers lucrative pilgrimage tour packages, adventure tour packages etc.
