Prathamesh S 11 months ago

Varanasi is an ancient city in India known for its timeless beauty. The majestic Ghats, the ancient temples, and the zigzag lanes all come together to create an enchanting sight. As the sunsets, the air is filled with the sound of temple bells, the smell of incense and the sight of lit oil lamps floating along the River Ganges. It is said that one can find spiritual peace in this holy city. It is no wonder that the city has attracted pilgrims for centuries.

Along with several places to visit, one of the famous places that add one more star to the beauty of Varanasi is Sarnath. Few kilometers away from the city, the place holds immense importance as well as pleasure scenes to the eyes. Sarnath is considered to be one of the four most important pilgrimage places for Buddhists all over the world. As the site of the Buddha’s first sermon, it holds a unique place in history. The Varanasi trip will be totally incomplete without visiting Sarnath.

There is a grand temple of Buddha here. This place is quite famous for the fact that here Lord Gautam Buddha gave his first sermon to his 5 followers. That's why Buddhism spread, that's why it is very famous in the country and the world. Here Chinese people come to visit in very good numbers and all the things found here are either written in Pali or in Mandarin. It feels great to walk here. The stupa here is even more attractive.
