Set on the northern bank of the Ganga, Varanasi is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world — cited in the Rigveda, mentioned by the Buddha, walked by Mark Twain, painted by Tagore. To Hindus it is Kashi, the city Shiva himself is said to have chosen.
Its rhythm is measured in bells, aartis and the slow arc of morning boats — a rhythm that has not changed for three thousand years, and that the ghats still keep tonight.
Every dawn the Subah-e-Banaras begins at Assi Ghat; every dusk the Ganga Aarti at Dashashwamedh lights the water. Somewhere in between, in Bhagwanpur, sits Devraj Palace — five floors of quiet refuge, five minutes from the water.
Ten kilometres from the ghats — and thirty minutes from your room — lies Sarnath, the deer park where the Buddha, newly awakened at Bodh Gaya, chose to preach his very first sermon: the Dhammacakkappavattana Sutta, the setting-in-motion of the wheel of Dharma.
What remains is quieter now — the tall Dhamek Stupa from the 5th century, the ruins of the Mulagandhakuti monastery, the Ashokan pillar whose capital became the emblem of the Republic of India — but the calm is unmistakable, and the trees still shelter deer.
Ask our concierge for a half-day Sarnath tour: Dhamek Stupa, the Sarnath Museum, and the modern Mulgandha Kuti Vihar with its mural cycle of the Buddha's life.
For nearly three thousand years, at the same time each evening, priests light oil lamps to the river and chant her name into the night. Five minutes from Devraj Palace — a walk you will not forget.
Cab pickup from your train or flight, a curated one-day tour of Kashi, a half-day at Sarnath, or a sunrise yoga session — arranged by our front desk. All chargeable, transparent, and on-request.
