The Digpatiya Ghat is located south of Dashaswamedh Ghat, somewhere between Chousaiti Ghat and Babua Pandey Ghat along the Ganges in Varanasi. Due to its structure that goes almost to the riveredge, the ghat itself is steep and narrow here, but widens up when it reaches Babua Pandey. The Digpatiya is an exquisite of North Indian architecture.

I passed through Digpatiya Ghat when I was riverbank of the Ganges. I also saw it from the river when I went boating in the morning. As this is just a narrow ghat, there isn't much people here. Like the other ghats at this time of the day, there were not too many people.
