Banaras Bhramand

Namaste, Varanasi or traditionally known as Kashi (meaning light), is believed to be the oldest city on the planet standing today and has been a hub for people seeking liberation and enlightenment for centuries.

We have seen people coming to Varanasi with great hopes and expectations, but most of the time we felt that they leave Varanasi without understanding the true essence of the city, and its glorious past and spiritual history.

Did you know that in ancient history people dreamt of dying in Varanasi only and nowhere else? Varanasi has been the most important place for people seeking liberation and enlightenment, even Buddha got enlightened very near to Varanasi.
