GUESTBOOKThe holy city of Varanasi is known as the gateway to Nirvana by the Hindus as this is the most auspicious place to die and thought to allow the soul direct entry into Nirvana. Bathing in the Ganges is also believed to wash away all sins. The city is a place of pilgrimage and worship with the whole atmosphere of the old city and near the ghats (steps) along the Ganges is that of an open-air cathedral. Here are some views of life along the river.
