Varanasi, one of the oldest living cities in the world, is a maze of narrow streets, spiritual ghats, and vibrant local
markets. For tourists, getting around this holy city can be tricky.
Cars often get stuck in traffic or can’t even enter the narrow lanes. That’s
why more and more travelers are choosing bikes
and scooties over cars to explore Varanasi.
Most of Varanasi’s famous attractions like Dashashwamedh Ghat, Kashi Vishwanath Temple, and
Godowlia Market are tucked inside lanes where cars can’t go. Bikes and
scooties make it effortless to navigate these streets.
Varanasi roads are often crowded, especially
near the ghats. Tourists prefer bikes because:
·
They save
hours stuck in traffic
·
Parking is easier and cheaper
·
You can quickly zip through shortcuts locals use
·
Car rentals or taxis: ₹1,000–₹2,000/day
·
Bike rentals with Bike Wale Bhaiya:
Starting ₹300–₹500/day
That’s a huge saving for budget travelers and
backpackers!
