Varanasi is the Indian city of the dead with corpses in the Ganges River, body burnings, a funeral mafia and scammers operating at every turn! Every day, thousands of sick, old and infirm people flock here from all over India to die on the banks of the Ganges and escape the wheel of Samsara. Here, corpses float in the river, rot on the shore, burn in fires. Here, death is part of the culture. And despite everything, Varanasi is a mysterious and amazingly beautiful city.
