Deep Dive: Darbhanga Ghat
Darbhanga Ghat is one of the most visually stunning ghats in Varanasi, characterized by the grand Brijrama Palace (now a luxury hotel) that overlooks the river. It was built by the Royal Family of Darbhanga in the early 20th century.
The palace architecture is a blend of Maratha and Gothic styles. The ghat is known for its wide steps and its proximity to Munshi Ghat. It remains a symbol of the royal patronage that has shaped the heritage of Varanasi for centuries.
