Itinerary
After meeting at Assi Ghat or your hotel, we will watch the morning ceremony at Assi Ghat, followed by a concert and yoga.
From there, we will go on a walking tour through the labyrinth of alleys in the old town, stopping at Lolark Temple, Rani Lakshmi Bai Park, and Tusli Ghat Akhara to watch the traditional wrestling. If you are hungry we can always stop for a breakfast break and of course, we will drink some chai along the way.
We will then take a boat to the big cremation ground. From the boat, you can watch the daily lives of the locals as they practice yoga, pray, worship the river, bathe, drink chai, get a haircut, or do their laundry.
We will finish by taking a temple tour where we will see the golden temple, Pashupatinath temple also known as the Nepali temple, and finally the Vishalakshi Temple. We will then walk back to the Dasaswamedh Ghat where our tour will conclude.

About Varanasi
Varanasi, on the Ganges in Uttar Pradesh, is one of the oldest living cities in the world, a sacred place of river steps, temples and silk looms.
Varanasi, also called Benares or Kashi, has been a place of pilgrimage for thousands of years, and Hindus come to bathe in the Ganges, to pray, and to die. Along the west bank, about eighty ghats, broad stone stairways, descend to the water, among them Dashashwamedh Ghat, where lamps and chanting mark the evening aarti ceremony. The Kashi Vishwanath Temple, dedicated to Shiva, stands in the old city's maze of narrow lanes.
Top-ranked sights in Varanasi: Manikarnika Ghat, Dashashwamedh Ghat, Ganges River (Ganga).
