When is the best time to go to Varanasi?
The most popular time to visit Varanasi is from October to March, with the peak tourist season occurring during the winter months. The climate during this period is pleasantly mild, with temperatures ranging from 10 to 25°C, making it superb for leisurely exploration of the city's ancient ghats and vibrant streets.

As you wander through the historic alleys or take a boat ride on the Ganges River, the comfortable weather enhances your experience, allowing you to immerse yourself in the local culture and spirituality.

Where can I find the best nightlife in Varanasi?
Varanasi, known for its spiritual essence and ancient traditions, offers a unique blend of experiences, but nightlife here is quite different from bustling urban centres.

While Varanasi is not renowned for a traditional nightlife scene, it does have a few delightful spots where you can enjoy the evening atmosphere. The area around the ghats, particularly Dashashwamedh Ghat, comes alive at night with evening aarti ceremonies that attract both locals and visitors alike. Watching the vibrant rituals performed by priests against the backdrop of the Ganges River is a truly captivating experience.

For a more laid-back evening, you can explore the riverside cafes and restaurants, such as Kashi Cafe or Open Hand Cafe, where you can enjoy a meal while soaking in the serene views of the river. These venues often have live music, providing a pleasant ambiance for a relaxed night out.

If you're looking for a more local experience, head to the narrow lanes of the old city, where you might stumble upon small eateries and chai stalls that buzz with life after sunset. Here, you can savour local delicacies and engage in conversations with the friendly locals.
