📍 Pilgrimage

4.7

Nearly ninety stone ghats step down to the Ganga in one of Earth's oldest living cities, where pilgrims bathe at dawn, priests whirl fire at the evening Ganga Aarti, and life and death flow side by side at Dashashwamedh, Assi and Manikarnika. A dawn boat ride past the waking ghats is among India's most unforgettable experiences.
