Hi,
I visited Varanasi in 2010 and have to say it was one of my favourite places I visited in India. To this day I tell people it's the one city everyone visiting India should see. Seeing your pictures gave me a healthy dose of nostalgia and I'm very pleased it looks just like it did 7 years ago.
It's such a vivid and vibrant city and the location by the Ganga is purely magical. Some places don't seem to change that much after all and that's a good thing!
I have followed you and hope to see more pictures. You have seriously made me think about visiting again.
