Subjects : Varanasi, also known as Benares, is one of the oldest cities in the world still inhabited. Offers many opportunities for the story: it is a exceptionally picturesque. Walking along the ghats - the river Ganges - you can meet amazing characters and attend ceremonies and scenes of daily life on the sacred river.

Recommended equipment : It 's very difficult to use a tripod, then shooting freehand recommend a good SLR camera that can withstand the high iso. The ideal is to have at least one wide-angle standard zoom, plus possibly a view to portrait.

Best months : All year round, but at certain times there may be special events (such as the Kumbh Mela) that make the place even more interesting.

How to get there : Strongly discourage rent a car in India, since the traffic is huge and the highway code does not exist, it is possible to move with public transport links. Varanasi is easily accessible by train and within the city there are many who are rickshaw taxi service.

Visits : The city is freely accessible.

Notes : Conditions of extreme poverty, chaos, decay and lack of hygiene require a strong ability to adapt. I stayed in Puja Guest House: a very cheap hotel that leaves much to be desired, but it is one of the tallest buildings in the city and from the terrace over the building there is a beautiful view over Varanasi.
