Phil's Mondo India Slide Show
Sights of Varanasi




In the blistering heat of Varanasi, even water buffalos enjoy a mid-afternoon dip in the Ganges.



The sewage and sanitation systems of India are often not up to par, and in the Godaulia section of Varanasi, it is an awful situation. Here's a typical street corner in Godaulia, with garbage strewn about, next to what appears to be (on the left) the only sewage runoff system - a small trough or gulley on the side of the street. If you are ever in Godaulia, do not, I repeat, do not step into this gulley.
