Day 6
Varanasi
Varanasi, Banaras or Kashi, call it what you will, the city where many come to find god, spirituality or simply themselves is a gamut of life. Situated in Uttar Pradesh, Varanasi is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world.
Boat ride at the Ganges
Varanasi is synonymous with the river Ganga. The old city of sages, gurus, travelers and traders begins and ends with the sacred river. Some say that just sitting at the ghats and observing people from different walks of life teaches you many things. It is also exhilarating to take a quiet boat ride at the crack of dawn and watch as the city turns into the chaotic bustle that it is.
Eat Apple Pie in Vatika Cafe
A lot of people come to Varanasi to experience spirituality and find the meaning of life. One foolproof way to finding happiness, though, is eating an apple pie at Vatika café overlooking the river Ganga. As you bite into the hot piece of pie while a cool breeze softly brushes your face, life will make more sense!
