Every evening at the revered Dasaswamedh Ghat, close to the Kashi Vishwanath Temple, the Varanasi Ganga Aarti is performed. It is a very choreographed ceremony, unlike the aartis at Haridwar and Rishikesh.At the Dashashwamedh ghat in Varanasi, Gange aarti begins at 6.45 PM and lasts for about 45 minutes after sunset. At least an hour before the Gange aarti, devotees began to arrive.
