Choosing a base
Dashashwamedh Ghat / Old City: Heart of the ghats, close to evening Ganga Aarti, temples, and narrow lanes full of shops. Cantonment / Raja Talab area: Quieter, more hotel options, easier access to train station and riverfront. Ramnagar: Lakeside feel with the fort and calmer streets; good for families wanting space.
