My journey to Varanasi

    Varanasi is known as the spiritual capital of India.The city is in between two ghats named Varun and Assi.
So the town is called as Varanasi.It is also called as Kashi and Benaras.,which is situated at the banks of the river Ganges.
   
    Recently a ten members of Our team went  there to perform my mother-in-law's annual funeral
customary rites.We stayed at Ganga view guest house which is very near to the ghats.On 5th and6th April we have done the rituals successfully.

   At the evening we had taken a  boat ride at river Ganga .The guide cum boat rider well explained about the ghats .Hetold us that there are approximatly 360 above ghats are existed .Harischandra ghat and Manikarnika ghat are known for funeral rites

    We have seen Ganga harthi from the boat.It was really amazing.We offered deep harthi to holiGanga. We went to Kashi Vishwanath,Annapurna and Vishalakshi temples and had our darshan.

  The next day we have visited Benaras Hindu University.It has a huge library.Students from various countries are studying there .
    Then we went to Allahabad,which is 3hours journey from varanasi.We had gone to Triveni Sangamam by a row boat and took a holy dip there.Then we rushed to Ananda 
Bhavan.This is the house of Mothilal Nehru and birth place of Indira Gandhi also.We have seen the memories of our National leaders.We have visited  the museum ,where all the monuments and memoirs were well preserved there.
