- A very important tip while you’re traveling to cities in U.P. which fall near the water bodies like Varanasi ghats, is that you must not go near the water once it’s dark. Most of these places have poor or no lighting and have uneven paths and walkways and there is quite a possibility for you to trip and fall and sustain injuries or any other unfortunate mishap. If you have children accompanying you, make sure that they do not run or play anywhere close to water body areas. Always carry a small torch while going out for a walk in the dark at these places.
