A photograph of the Dashashwamedh Ghat on the Ganges river in Varanasi, with stone steps leading down to the water. A white tourist boat with a railed upper deck is moored at right, and a small blue rowing boat with two seated boatmen in red clothing sits near the steps. Ochre-coloured flags and a yellow 'Dashashwamedh Ghat' signboard stand along the waterfront, with temple spires and old multi-storey buildings rising behind. A few people sit or stand on the steps in the distance, but no one is identifiable as a person.
