The Chousaiti Ghat is located south of Dashaswamedh Ghat, adjacent to Ranamahal Ghat along the Ganges in Varanasi. The locals like to take their bath here. They are young men who are a different crowd from the early morning pilgrims that congregate Dashaswamedh Ghat in the morning.

I passed through Chousaiti Ghat on a hot afternoon in November when I was riverbank of the Ganges. Like the other ghats at this time of the day, there were not too many people. Most foreign tourists are concentrated around Dashaswamedh Ghat, so this is slightly off the beaten bath.
