You discovered the undiscovered Varanasi!!
Great job!!


You might also visit the BHU campus in Varanasi and meet with the students of CHS inside the BHU . You will find the meeting extraordinary and thoughtful

another scammer like bald and bankrupt. soon he will show his true color 😂

Dear Chris - this is exactly what many of us look forward to - the off-the-beaten-track videos! Fantastic job! Please tell us more, please delve more.
Your guide Nandan is a force of nature and the eternal curious soul, the forever student who will go places in his quest. I checked his site out, thanks for the link. Fascinating journey his too. A kindred soul.
Looking forward to more esp any Buddhist connections still existing...
All the best from Delhi!

I was in Varanasi last week, meet 2 intersting people.

1. Sweden baba - a Swedish national who is a full on sadhu, living there, riding a motorcycle. Was warned by my hotel staff , where he lives not to talk to him, as he likes to go on and on.

1. A spanish gentleman, who has been coming here for 3 decades.

I was in Varanasi after the Maha Khumb Mela ,two weeks ago and yes the new Ghat you showed is off the beaten path but the other place you showed is central ghat area near dashinwade ghat ,Munshi ghat ect , alot of people and tourist ,especially during Maha Khumb. The reason i think so much people is you were there around same time as me, during Maha Khumb Mela. Actually i'm back for more comment .Yes the places you showed didn't have alot of tourists so you probably are correct .Sorry

Nandan SIR You are GREAT GUIDE...

Kashi was the name of the ancient kingdom existing since Iron age. It was one of the 12 Mahajanpads (republics) at one point. Varanasi was the capital. Now Kashi and Varanasi have become synonymous. But Kashi was not just Varanasi.

The tiny opening in the main doorway was a way to deter strangers from looking in or coming in with ease. It was the 1st layer of 'security' to the house.

They are not hidden. They are just too old, and all other structures were built around them later on as population skyrocketed.

Did it occur to you while looking down at the sanctum two floors below that it could be ground level at the time the temple was first built. Further construction above happening as the mount of dumping forcing the city to expand vertically.

Varanasi is one of the oldest if not the oldest city built by humanity. It's not just 2800 years old 😂

Totally wrong the site showed in video not real kashi

Dear Chris, a BIG CORRECTION TO YOUR NARRATION, Varanasi did start 2800 years ago, it is The Oldest living city existing in the world, dating 10,000+ years of written history. Please impart correct information as that very city Of Varanasi is our emotion.

i just watched the places that i might not be able to see in my life, thank you sir for the vlog..it that seems your ears unlocked new passive ability "Honk Immunity"..😂

Awesome information 👏👏

Majority ok london ,newyork and many more cities are full of garbage, poverty,druggist, drunkard. UNSAFE
Why u get shock here ?
U r hippocrates

Thank you for posting. Lovely to see from a grim cold UK!

Khasi is called trishul nogori where is trishul

Varanasi, one of my favourite places on earth 💜

Greetings and love from Varanasi Namaste 🙏🏻 i have visited all the places in this video with my Boyfriend ❤ this video is nostalgic.

With all due respect, your Thubnale is misleading

I beg to disagree
You just missed the real gems
Your guide just confused you
They do it God knows why
Varanasi has to be imbibed
Touristy things are OK yet not real Varanasi

Strange when a gora thinks he knows more then us and tells us we dont know our own cities.and do not forget kashi was built by a mughal and mahadev had not to do with it.

Thanks ❤❤❤🎉

We all love banaras ❤

Visit UTTAR KASHI ...in Uttarakhand . GOMUKH -- GANGOTHRI...where RIVER GANGA Starts .
Tnq for nice video..

Varanasi is basically a conjuction name.... The land between River Varuna and Assi (Asi) 😊

Local it is Benaras and ancient it is Kashi

Thoroughly enjoyed seeing a different part of Varanasi, the usual friendliness of the locals including the animals who live so amicably with people. Never disappointed viewing your informative videos and can’t wait for future ones.

I love India.
Thanks for this enchanting little tour.

Respected Chris, I suggest you to kindly visit Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh. That is called the holy land of Shivavatari (Lord Shiva's incarnate) Guru Gorakshnath(12th century A.D.). There is a famous monastery of Guru and there you may also know a very unique meditation type called 'Hathyoga' of that Nath sect. Very few ascetic practice that meditation.
I know If you visit there, you'll perfectly discribe about that 'Hathyoga' and I'm eager to know all that in your viewpoint.
And yes, from there Kushinagar (Lord Buddha's Nirvana place) is also not so far(only about 50 kms).

Mate. You have done it again. Tears in my eyes. Not since2018 Kashi🎉

You should go to Tamil Nadu .: you will love it

Love India!

Varanasi is my home town, born and brought up there. I Wish these insights could have been in our textbooks or local newspapers. I can bet many of the local people don't know much about their own city history and origins.

Great city first city of world

Thank u very much

Thanks Chirs, being from Varanasi loved your video ❤🫶

Bhaarat भारत

Please talk slowly. Your accent is not familiar to people here. You are pausing fine. But words in a sentence are delivered too fast.

The so called modern development is making Varanasi lose it's ancient vibe

This is a very nice video and made respectfully ❤

🙏

nice presentation ..nothing offensive 😂🎉

India isn't just about food and temples—try understanding the people. Learn Hindi before you go! i recommend "nexsum's ai language service". It teaches travel-friendly Hindi. It's a must try before coming to india!!

As an Indian I hate noise pollution😭
