With 7 days in Varanasi, you'll have time to experience the city's highlights. To walk the labyrinthine galis (alleys) of the Old City is to step back centuries, past vibrant silk shops, hidden temples, and chai stalls. This is Kashi, the 'City of Light,' believed to be founded by Lord Shiva, offering an overwhelming, raw, and profoundly moving experience that challenges and transforms visitors.
