Taking the boat ride along the Ghats at sunrise is worth the effort. |
|  | Varanasi, also known as Benares is located on the baks of the Ganges (or Ganga) river. It is considered the most important Hindu holy city. |
|  | Mark Twain said "Benaras is older than history, older than tradition, older even than legend and looks twice as old as all of them put together!".
Another great sage, (who is my friend) said, Varanasi is 2,000 years old and they have not widened the streets yet. |
