Useful Tips

For those with more time and inclination to explore the spiritual aspect of Varanasi, you can add Dasaswamedh Ghat to your itinerary, it is one of the most beautiful Ghats in Varanasi, and you can witness the Ganga Aarti in the evening. For those with less time, you can skip Bharat Kala Bhavan Museum to have more time for boat rides along the Ganges and experiencing local cuisine in the nearby markets.
