Start from your landing  in varanasi Airport catch a bus to Varanasi city in this travel guide featuring the best things to do in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India. Varanasi (also known as Benares, Banaras and/or Kashi) is the spiritual capital of India. As the holiest of seven sacred cities in Hinduism and Jainism you find many people from all over India visiting as well as tourists. In terms of attractions in Varanasi it is a destination worth visiting for the experience rather than a checklist of places to visit. Coming to the various ghats by day and night reveals what Varanasi is all about. You can take a boat ride in the morning for sunrise or later in the evening for sunset but the rest of the time I'd recommend just walking along the ghats and getting lost in the maze of back alleys in the old part of the city. At night be sure to check out the many evening performances and also it is worth visiting a burning ghat but remember to be respectful by putting away your camera. 

Things to do in Varanasi Travel Guide:

1) Ganga Aarti (श्री गंगा आरती) performance at night in Varanasi where Brahmans hold large bowls of fire in their hands while offering holy mantras to river Ganges, Shiva (Hindu God of destruction), Surya (Sun God) and the universe
2) Dashashwamedh Ghat (दशाश्वमेध घाट) main ghat on the Ganga River
3) Wandering around in back-alleys in the old city quarter of Varanasi 
4) Manikarnika Ghat (मणिकर्णिका घाट) burning ghat where bodies are cremated along the Ganges River
5) Boat ride in Varanasi on the Ganges River either for sunrise or sunset 
6) Visiting the many ghats in Varanasi during different times of the day and in the evening

Varanasi is a city in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh dating to the 11th century B.C. Regarded as the spiritual capital of India, the city draws Hindu pilgrims who bathe in the Ganges River’s sacred waters and perform funeral rites. Along the city's winding streets are some 2,000 temples, including Kashi Vishwanath, the “Golden Temple,” dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva
