What is the Kashi Vishwanath Temple ticket price?

General darshan is free. Sugam Darshan (fast-track) costs ₹300. Mangala Aarti ticket is ₹500 and must be booked 30 days in advance. Bhog, Sandhya, Shringar and Shayan Aarti tickets are ₹180 each. Sparsh Darshan (touch-darshan) is free but requires booking 2 weeks in advance.

How do I book Kashi Vishwanath online ticket?

Tickets can be booked through the official Shri Kashi Vishwanath Temple website (shrikashivishwanath.org) or via the official mobile app. For Mangala Aarti, bookings open exactly 30 days before the date at midnight — slots sell out within minutes. For all other aartis, book at least 3–7 days in advance.

What is the cost of VIP darshan at Kashi Vishwanath?

Sugam Darshan at ₹300 per person is the most popular VIP option — it lets you skip the long general queue. For Mangala Aarti darshan (₹500), you get priority entry at 3 AM. Our tour package includes VIP queue assistance at no extra cost.

Is there any dress code for entering Kashi Vishwanath?

Modest Indian attire is strongly preferred. Men should wear kurta-pyjama or a shirt with full trousers — shorts are not permitted in the sanctum. Women should wear salwar-kameez, saree, or any outfit covering the shoulders and knees. Leather items (belts, wallets) must be removed.

What items are prohibited inside the temple?

Mobile phones, cameras, smartwatches, leather items, lighters, and large bags are strictly prohibited inside the sanctum. Free lockers are available at the entrance. Allow 15 minutes extra for locker deposit during peak hours.

When is the best time to visit Kashi Vishwanath Temple?

Early morning (3–6 AM) has the shortest queues and most peaceful atmosphere. Evenings (7–9 PM) are spectacular but very crowded. Avoid Mondays and Shravan month (July–August) unless you have booked VIP tickets. Weekdays are significantly less busy than weekends.

How long is the queue for general darshan?

On weekdays the general queue takes 30–90 minutes. On Mondays, weekends, and during Shravan month, it can stretch to 3–5 hours. Sugam Darshan (₹300) reduces this to 15–20 minutes. With our tour package we handle the queue management entirely.

Can I do Rudrabhishek at Kashi Vishwanath?

Yes — Rudrabhishek is the most powerful ritual performed at the temple. Costs range from ₹2,500 to ₹7,500 depending on the priest and offerings. Must be booked at least 1–2 days in advance. We can arrange this as part of your package on request.
