A sacred ritual that colors the Varanasi night. Puja experience!

The atmosphere of the "Puja (Aarti)" held on the Ganges River in Varanasi is truly divine and overwhelming. The moment when the flames sway with the flow of the Ganges River, the sound of bells and mantras resound, is a spiritual experience unique to India. The road to Dashashwamedh Ghat is also full of energy, and the chaotic atmosphere of food stalls, pilgrims, and cows is also one of the attractions. The Puja itself is a ritual to offer gratitude and prayers to the Hindu gods, but the nice thing about it is that tourists can easily watch it! If you participate, it is recommended to go early and secure a place at the front where you can see it! There were also paid seats for about 500 yen. It is also fantastic to ride a boat and view it from the river, and you can enjoy it from a different angle. If you are planning to go to Varanasi, this is a spot you should definitely not miss. #Varanasi #IndiaTrip #VaranasiTrip #Spring0YenTrip Opening hours: After sunset (around 7pm in summer, around 6pm in winter)
