Varanasi - Ghats - Bundi Parkota Ghat

Varanasi Ghats - Bundi Parkota Ghat:
The Bundi Parkota Ghat is located on the north side of Dashaswamedh Ghat, a short distance after Scindia Ghat along the Ganges in Varanasi. The dhoby operating here left their washing to dry on the open ground. This is one of several ghats along the Ganges where laundry is being washed and dried.
According to the information I gathered, Bundi Parkota Ghat used to be called the Raja Mandira Ghat. It was created by Raja Surajana Hada, the King of Bundi, in 1580AD. Above this ghat are the shrines of Sesa Madhava, Karnadity and Laksmi Nrsimha.
