Kashi, Portraits & Life Scenes

Photos
These pictures (March 2010) were mainly shot in Vârânasî, India's most sacred city, also known as Kashi (the City of Light) and Benares.

Vârânasî's spiritual legacy goes back at least 3000 years. Sanctified by the god Shiva's stay and by the ever-present Ganges, the city’s 90 Ghâts, stairways leading down to the sacred river and up to Heaven, are the soul and identity of Vârânasî.
