A guided walk through the sacred lanes and ghats of ancient Kashi.
This guided walk threads through Kashi's older lanes and ghats, taking in temples, historic buildings and everyday scenes of a city that has functioned largely the same way for centuries. Rather than rushing between landmarks, the walk is paced to let you notice the details — a shrine tucked into a wall, a decades-old shopfront, the rhythm of morning rituals along the river.
