Wide view of Scindia Ghat on the Ganges at Varanasi, with a broad stone staircase of pink-tan steps leading down to the river under a pale blue sky. A white and gold shrine pavilion with a domed spire, labelled Scindia Ghat, stands at the top of the steps beside multistorey buildings and trees. Several people are scattered on the steps and near the water, some bathing at the edge, and a small red boat is moored at the bottom left.
