Munshi Ghat Varanasi
Me and my friends
Varanasi, Banaras, Ahilyabai Ghat, Munsi Ghat, Rana Ghat, Dharbhanga Ghat
The Queen of the Malwa kingdom (Indore, MP referenced in the video), Ahilyabai Holkar, donated 22x40 kilos of gold for Viswanath Temple, which is just a bit off the ghats in Varanasi. In fact, besides this, Ahilyabai has worked and contributed to well over two dozens temples and ghats all across India. She was also known as the philoshper's queen'.
You also see the mention of Munsi Ghat from Maharaja of Nagpur. You also see Darbhanga Ghat, donated by Maharaja of Darbhanga, Bihar.
He suspects that though I speak the local Bhojpuri dialect, I do not reside in Varanasi. He suspects that my English accent is not local, which is a fact. :) These guys know their stuff. Even an x-local can not fool'em. :)

Aerial view of Varanasi as seen from Munshi Ghat: telecom cell-phone towers aplenty
Munshi Ghat is one of the more photogenic ghats along the Old City stretch of the Ganges in Varanasi. The Old India collides with the New India in this landscape which is dotted with generators and telecom towers, towering above a landscape that is otherwise eternal along the banks of the holy river.
The Indian urban landscape is now cluttered with multiple cell-phone, data and other telecommunications towers, standing atop buildings that may or may not be able to hold their weight along with the added weight of generators that provide them with back-up power.
Children fly kites in the evening at the residential area near Ganges River, Munshi Ghat Varanasi, India.
Varanasi, the holy city of India, is also known by the name of Kashi and Benaras. Kashi, the city of Moksha for Hindus since centuries, is known for its fine-quality silks, 'paan' and Benares Hindu University and Avimukta of the ancient days, Varanasi is the most popular pilgrimage point for the Hindus. One of the seven holiest cities, Varanasi city is also one the Shakti Peethas and one of the twelve Jyotir Linga sites in India. In Hinduism it is believed that those who die and are cremated here get an instant gateway to liberation from the cycle of births and re-births.
Considered as the abode of Lord Shiva, Varanasi is situated on the banks of River Ganges, which is believed to have the power of washing away all of one's sins. As pundits here will tell you, whatever is sacrificed and chanted here or given in charity reaps its fruits thousand times more than those good deeds performed at other places because of the power of that place. It is believed that three nights of fasting in Varanasi city can reap you rewards of many thousands of lifetimes of asceticism!
Varanasi is the oldest city of the world. Varanasi is more than 3000 years old and is famous as the city of temples. In Varanasi, there are temples at every few paces. Looking at the number of temples in Varanasi, it is hard to believe that a large number of them were demolished during the medieval times. Jyotirlinga Visvanatha Temple or Golden Temple, rebuilt in 1776, is dedicated to Lord Shiva. The Jnana Vapi well (meaning 'Well of Wisdom) is believed to have been dug by Lord Shiva himself. It is believed that the majestic Alamgir mosque has replaced one of the most ancient shrines known as the temple of Bindu Madhava. The thirty-three hundred million shrines fill one with awe and wonder with sheer numbers.
The Ganga Ghats (river front) are the most popular pilgrimage spot of Varanasi and are centers of music and learning. There is a great tradition of Yatras in the holy city of Kashi and the most sacred path is that of Panchkoshi Parikrama, the fifty-mile path with a radius of five miles that cover 108 shrines along the way, with Panchakoshi Temple as its main shrine. Other popular pilgrimage route is Nagara Pradakshina, which covers seventy-two shrines along the way. Since time immemorial Varanasi is a great center of learning. The holy city has been a symbol of spiritualism, philosophy and mysticism for thousands of years and has produced great saints and personalities like Guatama Buddha, Mahavira, Kabir, Tulsi Das, Shankaracharaya, Ramanuja and Patanjali.
