    Overview

    Chhath Puja for families in Panchganga Ghat

    Chhath Puja is one of the most revered festivals of Bihar, Purvanchal and Varanasi. Over four days in the month of Kartik, the vratis worship Surya Dev and Chhathi Maiya with fasting, purity and offerings made at the water's edge, most famously on the ghats of the Ganga.

    Panchganga Ghat lies on the northern part of Varanasi's riverfront. Its name is traditionally explained as the meeting place of five rivers, and it is one of the ghats pilgrims have long visited for a holy dip in Kashi.

    वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्यकोटि समप्रभ।

    निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा॥

    Vakratuṇḍa mahākāya sūryakoṭi samaprabha, nirvighnaṁ kuru me deva sarvakāryeṣu sarvadā.

    O Lord with the curved trunk and mighty form, radiant as a million suns, remove the obstacles from all my undertakings, always.Traditional Ganesha prayer

    Planning Your Puja in Panchganga Ghat

    The ghat is reached on foot through old city lanes; vehicles stop well short of it.
    Steps are steep and can be slippery, so plan carefully for elderly relatives.
    Kartik mornings are busy with devotees taking snan.
    Boats from the central ghats are another way to reach this stretch of the river.
    Water levels rise in the monsoon and the lower steps may be under water.
    Book the Pandit well ahead; Chhath is one of the busiest times of the year.
    Prepare soop, dauri, thekua, sugarcane and seasonal fruit, or ask us for a samagri list.
