19th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Varanasi - The spiritual capital of India
Situated at the banks of the river Ganges, Varanasi is the spiritual capital of India. Considered one of the oldest cities in the world, Varanasi has both intrigued and attracted people in equal measures. Authors, poets, artists have frequented this place, either to seek solace or to gain some inspiration and Varanasi never failed to provide either. Several people have spoken about the city, its winding alleys, and its mystic spirituality. My single trip to Varanasi is not enough for portraying the true Varanasi, I will have to come back here again and again.
