Morning boat excursion on the river Ganges, a ferry pilgrimage from
ghat to ghat. People bathe early in the morning to offer the prayers
to the rising sun. The two cremation ghats are Manikarnika &
Harishchandra where funeral pyre burns day and night. Every pious
Hindu believes that to die in Kashi and to be cremated on banks of
the Ganges is to attain release from the cycle of birth and death.
