PILGRIMAGE CONTEXT
Outer Panchakroshi shrines
The Panchakroshi yatra traces a boundary around sacred Kashi and links village shrines, tanks and larger halts. The Kashi Khanda’s pilgrimage list gives the religious context for the circuit. To visit individual stops by road, arrange the outer route as a separate outing and confirm the village name and approach in advance.
