18. Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh
For Hindus, Varanasi is one of the holiest places to visit. The sacred ghats, religious hymns, and ashrams fill the city with a heavenly and peaceful air. Soaking in the sunrise and sunsets, taking a boat ride in the misty Ganges, and sitting by the ghats to watch the religious ceremonies are the highlights of visiting this revered city in the winters.
