Sant Ravidas Ghat

Sant Ravidas Ghat, Religious ghat in Varanasi, India.

Description

Sant Ravidas Ghat is the southernmost ghat along the Ganges, featuring a large memorial park and wide steps descending to the river. The site provides extensive space for visitors and pilgrims to reach the water and engage in religious activities.

History

The ghat opened in 2009 as part of a broader effort to develop this southern section of the city and honor the legacy of Sant Ravidas. The creation of this site reflected growing recognition of his spiritual influence across the region.

Culture

The site is named after Sant Ravidas, a spiritual teacher who advocated for equality and human dignity across all social groups. You can observe visitors praying and meditating here, experiencing how this place remains important to communities who honor his teachings.

Practical

The site is accessible by local transportation and offers morning ceremonies, boat rides, and religious activities throughout the day. The wide steps and open spaces make navigation easy, though it can become crowded during peak times.
