    This has the feel of a vintage film from a much older time, some of that is because India is such an ancient land and doesn't seem much modern even in 2014 . Good move instant classic.

    So many people seem to arrive in Banaras after a long & tiring journey eh? My first time was on the Shivganga Express down from Delhi in Sleeper. 12hrs turned into 22... Re Chotiwala- some of the best restaurant food I've had in the north. Amaaazing palak paneer.

    • @GabrielTravelerVideos
      @GabrielTravelerVideos  3 года назад +5

      That bus trip from the Nepal border to Varanasi was one of the craziest of my travels. I wish I'd filmed that one. It was pouring down rain like crazy and the bus was so rickety it was leaking and felt like it was about to fall apart. The towns and villages we passed through were some of the most intense places I've ever seen, totally surreal. It took longer than it was supposed to, no surprise there, and we arrived in Varanasi in the middle of the night.

    Hey, really enjoying all of your videos! And I'm really happy that you visited a Jain temple in Jaisalmer. Just one correction at 14:15 though. Jainism wasn't founded by Lord Mahavira. There are 24 Prophets in Jainism and Lord Mahavira is the 24th one. Jainism has been into existence since time unknown.
    Ahimsa Parmo Dharma!
