Banaras - The Oldest Living City Of The World

By Mridula Tyagi

I visited Banaras that is "Varanasi" recently. Banaras is a wonderful ancient city which should be visited to understand our culture and traditions. One can see the old "Gurukul" culture which still prevails in some parts of the city. Literature, Ganges and temples are worth seeing. Sculpture and rituals attracts the mind and one can even see the handwork of silk. Handlooms of banarasi sarees, Pans, Sweets, Thandai and above that main deity "Shiva" enchants a lot.

A Traveler should visit Varanasi to see what old India was, culture, handlooms and open heartedness of the people. The curve of Ganges and merger of "Varura" and "Asi" rivers
