Ganga Puja, also Ganga Aarti Ceremony, is a traditional ritual as well as the most representative event in Varanasi which brings mystery to India.

As one of the most attractive highlights in Varanasi, Ganga Puja also includes wonderful and diverse activities: drinking sacred water, lightening lanterns and praying & blessing.

Usually the priests are selected from Brahmins — India’s highest caste. Young and handsome priests dressed in gorgeous silk clothes and the melodious music will lead audiences into the sacred atmosphere of worship. For a moment, it seems that all scenery and people go back thousands of years.
