Dress Code: Varanasi, a city steeped in tradition and spirituality, holds its cultural norms in high regard. We kindly request that both men and women dress modestly, in keeping with the local customs. Please avoid clothing that is too revealing, and aim for simplicity and respect in your attire to honor the cultural values of the city.

This helps create an environment of silence and respect for all.
