Visit the Kashi Vishwanath temple early this morning before sunrise. Kashi Vishwanath temple is one temple which always has crowds. It is one of the most important Shiva temples in the country and in the world and thus, anytime you visit, it is bound to be crowded. Once done with the visit, head out for some local breakfast and then head out to visit the Sarnath Buddhist site of the first sermon. Today we also sneak in a visit to the artisan weavers of the world renowned Benarasi Sarees. As you see the community intricately weaving a beautiful lore on yarn, you are sure to feel pride in the heritage and culture of the country! Today evening, return to the ghats, as you take a boat across the river Ganges and witness the City of Lights truly light up during the Ganga Aarti!
