more desserts, very sweet

these and something else were what i bought. 750naira .

a cup of mango flavor yogurt. no diarrhea this time. it was sealed, maybe produced in a factory.

jackfruit for sale, but, why did they chop them in this way ?

back to the river again

the saint. he would charge you money for a close-up

small shrines everywhere.

boats moored for rent. guess not cheap.

the altar. not allowed to step on with shoes on.

people bathing even brushing teeth by the river , with bodies and ashes.

a wider view

a gate of the wharf to the riverside

a hectic area

the most busy ghat

this building everywhere. a bunch of kids playing cricket.

the embankment

the river, a quiet section

another ghat, wharf

roots

my dinner, the ubiquitous chicken meat in india, the only reassuring thing i dare put in my mouth .
with curry gravy, pretty good.

the night scene , just after the ceremony

the lighted wharf

going back to my guesthouse

the final day in vanarasi, later i would go back to the starting city kolkata via a stopover climbing a holy mountain .

day 25

backed to varanasi railway station.

the typical varanasi fish meal, which saved me from starvation (if i did not venture to other odd looking food)

good4all40:
Op please if you don't mind me asking, which country passport are you using for this wonderful voyage and adventure?

This thread has really open my eyes about India...I prefer Nigeria 100millions times over India.

kind of envy you.

you know nothing of india , and there are still places that can amaze you. as to me, i already had a stereotype of india before i went there. it was a reinforcement of the impression to me when i was really being there. you would have bigger culture shock and more fun if you go to india.

and patriotism is another kind of religion. so , being an atheist, i also kind of admire your infatuation with your religion. you found something bigger than your life. congrats.

India is the real shiithole

Very very durty, underdeveloped and shitty. How do humans live there without contacting water and air borne disease? Give me 1 million naira to adventure to that place, I'd aggressively decline.

day 25

heading to a small town near city ranchi. there was a holy mountain nearby. it was for jaina religion.

yogurt in a commode-shape container, for sale.
