This is the place where Buddha preached his first sermon to his five apostles and so Buddhism began from there. After that emperor, Ashoka created a number of stupas and monuments to spread Buddhism.

Each clergyman takes up a specific spot in the Ghat and starts the rituals by offering flowers to the river Ganga. The ritual includes many oil lamps on snake hood lamps which are waves in a synced motion chanting some mantras at the same time.

Varanasi - Yattri's Varanasi tour was a great blend of spirituality and culture. We got to explore the ancient temples and ghats, and the boat ride on the Ganges during sunrise was a highlight. A wonderful introduction to the city.

The trip was memorable with friends and the team of company - The river itself is extremely important to the Hindu religion, but as a spectacle it is just so. It is the scenes along the riverbank, and the various Ghats which make a boat trip on the Ganges the spectacle that it is. From ritual bathing to nearby cremations the banks are full of interest and colour. To take another boat ride in the evening presents even more spectacular sights along the bank The river ride is slow and peaceful. Certainly worth a visit and a ride on this holy of holy rivers.
