Varanasi is the city where the essence of India is concentrated. This sacred city of Hinduism, bathed by the river Ganges, mother Ganga, is the place of pilgrimage of many faithful who, in their last phase of life, come to her to die and reach the liberation of the wheel of reincarnations that she postulates the Hindu religion. Therefore, the city has a special energy, very dense, at times. The axis of life takes place in the Ganges ghats, of which 2 are those destined to cremations, funeral ceremonies that can be witnessed from a distance and with the utmost respect (no photos). Another of the most special moments is the Ganga Aarti ceremony, a Hindu religious ritual of worship of the Ganges, where fire, aromas, songs and dancing are a spectacle.<\/p>\n
