“The Jantar Mantar on the top adds a scientific layer to the ghat, which makes it stand out”
Apr 2021
The perfect way to see all the ghats in Varanasi is - boat Tour. Agents will come to you when you will be nearby ghats and negotiate with you, make sure that before riding. but again, to see ghats and their beauty, you must have this in Varanasi. Another very old Varanasi ghat, Man Mandir Ghat is notable for its beautifully Rajput architecture (especially window casings ), earlier this was known as Somewswar ghat. Rajput king Man Singh of Jaipur built his palace there in 1600. An additional attraction, the observatory, was added in the 1730s by Sawai Jai Singh II. The Jantar Mantar on the top adds a scientific layer to the ghat, which makes it stand out.

“Good place to spend time”
Mar 2021
Dwasashamedh ghat is very crowded. This place is just beside that ghat with less crowd. If anybody wants to see the beauty of river ganga peacefully, he can consider this ghat.

Beautiful View
Dec 2019
You get a beautiful view of this Ghat as you go in a boat ride from the south tip to north tip of Varanasi Ghats. The huge old structure looks amazing from the river. You realise how rich is our heritage and culture. Don't miss a boat ride in river ganga to enjoy all this.

The most popular ghat in Varanasi.
Apr 2019
Man Mandir Ghat was built in 1600 by Raja Man Singh and later housed an observatory. The northern corner of the ghat has a fine stone balcony.
