    You will be escorted from the hotel by your guide to the southern part of the city in an air-conditioned vehicle. From here the walk begins from the southernmost front of the Ganges river and passes through the holy ponds, sacred temples, on to the landscape of the 16th century poet Tulsidas, who is the re-teller of the great Hindu epic ‘Ramayana’. This is followed by a visit to a sacred well, the water from which is believed to have the powers to treat infertility. The walk continues through the courtyards of silk weavers, who have been hand-weaving the beautiful and intricately designed Silk saris for generations in their homes. Your guide will accompany you through alleys and explore with you old houses and local markets, which have been doing business here for centuries. He may assist you to talk to locals, listen to their stories, take pictures with them in their daily life in Varanasi .
