Digpatiya Ghat, Varanasi

The exquisite heritage architecture at Digpatiya Ghat, Varanasi. (16 November, 2004)


Digpatiya Ghat is a ghat located south of Dashaswamedh Ghat, somewhere between Chousaiti Ghat and Babua Pandey Ghat along the Ganges in Varanasi. Due to its structure that goes almost to the riveredge, the ghat itself is steep and narrow here, but widens up when it reaches Babua Pandey. The Digpatiya is an exquisite of North Indian architecture.

I passed through Digpatiya Ghat when I was riverbank of the Ganges. I also saw it from the river when I went boating in the morning. As this is just a narrow ghat, there isn't much people here. Like the other ghats at this time of the day, there were not too many people.

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While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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.
