The mountainous destination of Ladakh is located in the far north of India in the hotly contested province of Kashmir. Despite its size, this region has a low population density and is home to a large number of nomadic people. Nearly all visitors also spend time in the town of Leh, despite the area’s stunning, untamed environment being a major draw.

The Ladakh King’s Palace, dating from the 17th century, is located in the town, which is located at a very high altitude. You might like to visit one of the many Buddhist temples and monasteries in the Old Town, as Leh also has a vibrant Buddhist culture.

One of the world’s oldest cities, Varanasi has a history that spans more than 3,000 years. Varanasi, which is situated in North India on the banks of the River Ganges, has long been a significant center of learning as well as a significant Hindu pilgrimage site.

Hindus, Jains, and Buddhists revere Varanasi as a holy city because they hold the view that passing away there frees one’s soul from the cycle of reincarnation and that washing in the Ganges washes away one’s sins.

Varanasi has views and experiences that are unique to this world. Due to a large number of temples, it is known as the “City of Temples.” The Durga Temple, the Sankat Mochan Hanuman Temple, and the Shiva temple of Kashi Vishwanath, which is noted for keeping many monkeys, are a few of the most noteworthy.

The city’s ghats, a series of embankment stairs that descend to the Ganges River and are popular bathing spots, are arguably its most well-known landmarks. Dashashwamedh Ghat is the oldest and most well-known ghat. Hindu cremations and rituals commemorating death anniversaries are commonly held at the Manikarnika Ghat, a burning ghat. There are also massages, yoga, and other services provided here.
