Assi Ghat is a calm and relaxing ghat located at the southern end of Varanasi. It is popular among youngsters, tourists, and foreigners because the environment here is friendly and peaceful. The ghat is named after the Assi River, which meets the Ganga at this point.

Early morning is the best time to visit, especially if you want to watch the sunrise. Many people begin their day here with yoga sessions, peaceful meditation, and boat rides. The sound of the river and the cool breeze make mornings truly refreshing.

In the evenings, a smaller yet beautiful Ganga Aarti takes place. Cultural programs, local music, and celebrations often happen here during festivals. There are also cafes, bookstores, and street food stalls nearby that make the place more enjoyable.

Assi Ghat shows a different side of Varanasi — calm, relaxing, and perfect for sitting by the river and just observing life go by.
