Varanasi and its attractions for beach lovers

While Varanasi is famed for its ghats along the Ganges rather than traditional beaches, the riverbank offers a unique waterfront experience that can be as appealing as any coastal destination. Start your exploration at the iconic Dashashwamedh Ghat, where you can witness the mesmerizing Ganga Aarti, a spiritual ceremony that draws both locals and tourists alike. Just a short stroll away, the tranquil Assi Ghat provides a lovely spot to unwind, with beautiful views of the river and opportunities for boat rides at sunset. For a taste of local life, head to the bustling markets nearby, where you can sample street food and shop for handcrafted souvenirs. Families can enjoy a boat trip along the Ganges, offering a peaceful escape while engaging with Varanasi's vibrant culture. Finally, consider staying in the upscale hotels along the riverfront, where attentive service and stunning views of the Ganges enhance your experience. Here, you can relax in luxury after a day of exploration, making your stay both comfortable and memorable.

Amritara Suryauday Haveli

8/10 Good
"Hotel is quite basic for the rates charged. It requires updating and more 3 pin plug sockets. The location is perfect for prayers etc as it's by the river. The restaurant serves extremely nice veg food at a reasonable price."
