The Ganges River Varanasi, India

Photo of the week: The Ganges River Varanasi, India

Varanasi is a magical place at any time of the day, But during sunset if you take the time to just stop from exploring and pause to watch this incredible city transform from the chaotic fast paced day to the peaceful and calm sunset. The air is filled with the sounds of chants and bells from the near Hindu temples that adds serenity to this sublime travel experience. Sometimes slowing down and being in that very moment is what a destination needs in order to fully understand and appreciate it.
