We enjoy a special evening boat ride on the Ganges. See the Hindu devotees performing the 'Puja' with lighted lamps. The view is very mesmerizing and the ambience is spectacular in the backdrop of the beating of cymbals and bells as well as the incessant chantings. Overnight stay at Hotel in Varanasi. Day Two- Varanasi Local Sightseeing Manikarnika Ghat At dawn, visit the sacred Ganges for a boat ride. Every morning at dawn, hundreds of worshipers can be seen bathing in the sacred waters. The great river banks are lined with an endless chain of stone steps — the ghats — that stretch from one end of the city to the other. Believing that anyone who dies in the river of life in Varanasi gains freedom from the cycle of birth and death, the site has become a haven for the sick and aged waiting out their final days. The smoke that billows from the crematoriums on the edge of the river gives testimony to their final release from life's earthly confines. Your boat docks at Manikarnika (cremation) Ghat. On any given day, anywhere from a few dozen to a few hundred corpses are cremated here; the ghat is assiduous with activity as the cremated bodies threw up smoke and fire. Sarnath After Break Fast and Check –out we will move to Sarnath, 13 km. northeast of Varanasi is one of the Buddhist centres of India. Visit the Dhamekh Stupa where Buddha gave his first sermon after enlightenment, Chaukhandi Stupa, the deer park, Sarnath Archeological Museum and later drive back to Varanasi Local Sightseeing.
