MANMANDIR GHAT

This ancient yet beautiful ghat was built more than 400 years ago by Maharaja Man Singh. He also constructed an enormous palace on banks of the ghat, which is admired by countless architects around the world. The Jantar Mantar on the top adds a scientific layer to the ghat, which makes it stand out. Jam-packed with Hindu mandirs, the ghat is known to be a heaven for Hindu deities’ worshippers.

The ravishing views, especially during dawn and dusk, will give you a reason to stick around longer than usual. Situated on the banks of river Ganga, it is one of the most beautiful places not only in Varanasi but in entire India.
