With more than a handful of auspicious Hindu sights the Panchavati area in Nashik, India is heavily trafficked by Indian tourists. Hindus come to bathe in the Godavari River, cremations are done in the public, and the constant flow of people coming to pay respects can be dizzying. Do not be deterred by the chaos, I have found Nashik to be one the friendliest places I have been in the world.
