Beyond Life and Death.

Hello travelures, are you planning to visit Varanasi!

Best time to visit this divine place is decided by Mahadev itself. It’s a belief that when Mahadev wants to see you, he will make sure you go there. Although the Dev Deepawali celebration is my favorite. Celebrated on guru Purnima. Varanasi feels like heaven with lights and firecrackers illuminating all over the ghats and city this day. Devotees believe the gods descend to Earth to take a dip in the sacred Ganga River on Kartik Purnima. And that makes the whole festival heartwarming and godly.

Things to do in Varanasi

Take blessings of Kashi Vishwanath in the morning after a taking a dip into the holy water. Kashi being the oldest city as per mythological readings. Its believed that the Kashi was made by Mahadev and holds significant place in the heart of Hindu devotees.
Experience mesmerizing and spiritual Ganga aarti at ghat in morning and night.

Morning Aarti: 5:00 AM to 6:00 AM

Evening Aarti: 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM

Visit Manikarnika and experience holiest cremation site and the eternal flame burning for centuries. This eternal flame symbolizes the eternal nature of the soul and the cycle of life and death.
Having more than 88 ghats is something that makes Kashi special.
If you are visiting Varanasi during Dev Deepawali try to reach the ghats early as being heavily crowded the administration has to deal with so much public. And the entry is restricted. Seeing the Ganga Aarti at Dashashwamedh Ghat should be the first priority. If you want to enjoy the mesmerizing view of the ghats from the other side take a boat ride (heavily charged on this day appx 3000/person).
Laser lights and Diya with fancy electric lighting makes it more beautiful.
Firecrackers after the ganga aarti is most loved by visitor so make sure you saw that and don’t forget to lit up Diya and sky lantern.
