Chousaiti Ghat, Varanasi

Young bather after a dip in the Ganges. (16 November, 2004)


Chousaiti Ghat is a ghat located south of Dashaswamedh Ghat, adjacent to Ranamahal Ghat along the Ganges in Varanasi. The locals like to take their bath here. They are young men who are a different crowd from the early morning pilgrims that congregate Dashaswamedh Ghat in the morning.

I passed through Chousaiti Ghat on a hot afternoon in November when I was riverbank of the Ganges. Like the other ghats at this time of the day, there were not too many people. Most foreign tourists are concentrated around Dashaswamedh Ghat, so this is slightly off the beaten bath.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
