Insightful and interesting tours of Varanasi. If you chat with a local in Varanasi, you'll soon discover that the city is made up almost entirely of legends.
In fact, it is impossible to figure out where myth ends and history begins.

Apart from being a sacred Hindu tirtha (crossing-point or ford, literally a place where you cross over into the next world), Varanasi is sacred to Buddhists and Jain

Dawn on the Ganges at Varanasi. Thank you for the pics, Dilip and Madhu, so glad you could experience the beauty of the Ganges, and that Madhu's mother could have good darshan at Kashi Vishwanath and other temples.

Nepali Temple at Lalita Ghat in Varanasi, decked up during Dev Deepawali. It is a temple to Shiva as Pashupatinath, similar to the one in Nepal.
Construction was initiated by Rana Bahadur Shah, the king of Nepal (who lived in Varanasi for 4 years between 1800 and 1804). It was completed by his son 40 years later. Built of terracotta, wood and stone, it remains one of the most unique temples in Varanasi.

A Siberian gull greets us on the river Ganga. Thousands of gulls migrate here in winter, from northern and central Asia.
Boatmen in Varanasi are happy when the gulls arrive, because more tourists opt for boat rides to see the birds at close quarters and feed them. Little balls of dough and fritters are thrown, attracting the birds to the boats.
