An auspicious place to die !! As per Hindu belief , death in Banaras leads to Moksha!
One of the world's oldest continually inhabited cities and regarded as Hinduism's one of the holiest places . Pilgrims come here to wash away a lifetime of sins in the sacred waters of River Ganges. Rituals of life and death take place in public and the sights, sounds and smells in and around the ghats is overwhelming.Banaras is unique, and a walk along the ghats or a boat ride on the river will live long in the memory.
