RANI GHAT

While in Patna there are many ghats on River Ganges, the most famous is the Rani Ghat. The ghat comes alive every weekend, as the river's evening aarti, a ritual performed with lamps, is held here. Dressed in saffron robes, priests perform the aarti, along with prayers and songs. The blowing of a conch shell signals the start of the aarti.

Location: Patna University Campus, Patna.

Best Time to Visit: November to March.
