A wide daytime photograph of the Varanasi riverfront on the Ganges, showing a row of multi-storey buildings, stone ghats and steps climbing the hillside beneath a clear blue sky. A few small figures stand and walk along the sandy bank, and a red-and-green boat is moored at the water's edge. A tall temple spire rises on the left, and signboards with Hindi lettering mark several ghats. The water is in the foreground, with a small pale-blue building and a tree in the centre.
