Kedar Ghat Tours and Activities

Home to the Kedarnath Temple, not to mention serene scenes of the sun rising from the holy waters of the Ganges, Kedar Ghat in Varanasi is one of the most important and picturesque ghats in the region. Popular among Bengalis and South Indians, the Kedareshwar Temple here is dedicated to Lord Shiva, the presiding deity of Varanasi, and is a fine example of Hindu architecture. There’s also a Parvati Kund nearby, a small pool of water that’s believed to have highly medicinal properties.
The approach to Kedar Ghat is through a maze of narrow alleyways bustling with cattle, devotees, and operators organizing River Ganges boat rides. The steps down to the water are high and steep, with the upper steps brightly painted in stripes.
Practical Info
Kedar Ghat is situated around six kilometers from Varanasi’s city center and just over a kilometer from Bangali Tola. The ideal time to visit Kedar Ghat is early in the morning, when the entire area is filled with people praying and bathing in the sacred waters.
Address: Bangali Tola Road, Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India
