Panday, Chausathy and Rana Ghats [Benares]. Photographer: Bromochary, Brajo Gopal
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Architectural Photography
View from the steps of Chausathi Ghat looking along the riverbank. 'From Chouki to Panday Ghat the water is always very dirty and it is owing to a large Nala or gutter at the former which carries the filth of this quarter of the city into the Ganges. Chausathy is one of the most ancient Ghats of Benares. Rising up the flight of stairs is a temple in a narrow lane which is dedicated to the Goddess Chausathy. Rana Ghat has been built by the Rana of Udaypoor. It is less frequented by the faithful Hindus. The Mahommedans mostly bathe at this Ghat.'
