Arrive at Dashashwamedh Ghat by 5:00 PM to find a comfortable seat on the steps. Observe the synchronized movements of the priests as they offer flames to the river. The Aarti starts at 6:00 PM and draws large crowds, so an earlier arrival is advisable. Carry a light shawl as evenings can get breezy by the water.
