48 hours in the India's Craziest City Varanasi They say that this city is the perfect place to ...

People, today we are in India. Our reporter Alex Pototski has spent a few days in the city of Varanasi, a place that shocked even me! Varanasi is a Hindu city where thousands of people dream of burning their bodies in a sacred bonfire on the banks of the Ganges River. Those born into a poor family - an overwhelming number - are condemned to a life of poverty for generations. Some people eat the leftover meat: they are considered sacred diviners. Alex went in search of one of them... but how that turned out... see for yourself. In any case, the episode is very nice. Overall, it's very cool. This is Lyadov and How people live from India. This is not just a travel channel. This is a collection of documentaries about the lives of people in different parts of our planet. Here you will not see beautiful staged images. This channel is about something else. About reality, honest and sometimes frightening.
