Varanasi
Varanasi, which is generally considered the eternal city on the banks of the Ganga, has become one of the most sought-after destinations when celebrating Diwali. This place has its very own unique style and special ways of celebrating the Diwali festival.
Every year, when approaching this day, millions of India flow into Varanasi to celebrate Diwali. Thousands of colored lights are put afloat into the river by hoards of devotees staying attached to a tradition that is timeless. In addition to this beautiful and light scenery, the continuous stream of fireworks and firecrackers went off all long night. For the best experience, you should stay at one of the famous riverside hotels in Varasani to have a fabulous view.
Another highlight of the Diwali celebration in Varanasi is Gange Aarti, which is a powerful spiritual ritual that is performed during its celebration. The ghats are illuminated with candles, and the earthen lamps are floated down the river.
