About Southern & Educational

Anchored by Banaras Hindu University, the south is greener and calmer: Lanka's student eateries, Sankat Mochan and the New Vishwanath temple, Nagwa's riverside walks, and across the Ganga, Ramnagar Fort. Stay here for a quieter base with real local life, budget food and space to breathe — central sights are a 20–30 minute ride away.
