Ganga River兔兔子6The Ganges is the holy river of India, the mother river, with a long history and a strong folk culture. The Ganges turns a corner here in Varanasi. Every morning, thousands of Indians, regardless of men, women, and children, walk into the Ganges with a heart of piety. Men wear crotch and women wear sari.

Prachin Hanuman Ghat--水晶罐头-On the Ganges River in Varanasi, the river altars followed by one. Anyway, I was dizzy there a long time ago. From the early morning of five o'clock, to the boating tour, to the sleeping Varanasi buildings, they are all the former palaces. Then I see the sky gradually getting brighter and I see the whole city slowly awakening. In fact, Varanasi's five o'clock is very lively. Probably people with faith do not sleep late.
