Everything you need to know before booking your Dev Deepawali boat ride in Varanasi.
Dev Deepawali is celebrated on Kartik Purnima (15 days after Diwali) when the gods are believed to descend to earth to bathe in the holy Ganges. All 84 Ghats of Varanasi are illuminated with over one million diyas (earthen lamps). Booking a boat is essential because the ghat stairs are extremely overcrowded, and the Ganges river offers the only panoramic, unobstructed view of the illuminated ghats, fireworks, and Ganga Aarti.
