Varanasi is an amazing tourist destination and a must-visit for anyone who wants to experience the spiritual and religious side of India. From the famous ghats along the pious Ganga river to the fascinating temples of Lord Shiva, the city offers a unique blend of art, culture and religious beliefs.

Travellers who visit this historical town take back a wide array of memories that connect them to the roots of their culture, the warmth of India’s religious values and traditions that have been our legacy for centuries. In the following video, we’re sharing the passion of one such traveller who captured the uniqueness of Varanasi from the top while staying at an OYO. It includes the busy ghats, scattered river boats, closely built together houses and a row of temples or shrines in every nook and corner.

The strong desire of this wanderer and passionate photographer can be seen in the challenges taken to seize that breath-taking view from above. After waking up before sunrise and travelling about 15 kms to the opposite side of the river, our travel buff Pranshu Dubey (@PranshuDubey) took this beautiful video from Dashashwamedh ghat, about a kilometer ahead of Ramnagar area.

Magnificent isn’t it?
