A trip to Varanasi never goes unnoticed. Varanasi, one of the world's oldest continuously inhabited cities, is not just a destination, it is a profound philosophy. The city offers timeless teachings on human existence. The city known for its Ghats, street food and culture has so many things to tell. A visit to this city always shows us different aspect of life. I have been there multiple and every times I get a new experience. It was last time that I spend some lonely hours in the city and try to understand the city. Though I am not a philosopher, I do like to observe things. After taking a long walk arpund the city i preferred to sit at corner of the ghats leaning against the wall and tried to recapitulate all my observation.
The ghats was sort of crowded. There were many tourist who assembled on a high platform, which appears to be broken structure to enjoy tye cool river sights. I think it is a nice place to enjoy cool river breeze and the essence of the place.
The proof of one of the oldest inhibited city is marked at multiple places. There were many broken temple and structure around the city, which upholds many untold stories of the city. As I was looking around the ghats any tourist start preparing to enjoy boat rides.
Boat rides is one of the popular entertainment activity for the vistors. It generates good livlihood for local people there were many boats lined up to take the tourist on the boat ride. People.were eagerly ready to bargain the prices which varies between Rs.100 to Rs.200. It depends how you bargain it.
Some people like enjoying little dip in the river water. There were again signa of old temple structure that were lying attended as they were partially submerged under water.
After spending good hours, I took a walk back towards my hotel. It is alwsys easy to stroll the bylanes of Varansi than navigating through google maps. Each lanes will take you somewhere that will fascinates us. As I walked through I notices there were still ild houses and complex that exist. People might be living in those structure. Each of the corner were painted with unique drawing that introduces us with the spiritual aspect of the city.
Varansi has always been known as spiritual city. The labyrinthine, narrow alleys of Varanasi humble the ego. They teach us to slow down, embrace the unexpected, and let go of the urge to control every aspect of our path. It was fascinating time and every minutes were interesting to explore.
In good faith - Peace!!
