Chauki Ghat

Chauki Ghat is one of the smaller, largely residential ghats on the south central stretch of the riverfront, between Kedar Ghat and Someshwar Ghat.

Documented history specific to Chauki Ghat is thin compared with the city's landmark ghats, and it is used mainly by the local community for everyday bathing and river access rather than for any particular festival or pilgrimage rite.

It's a short stretch of steps best seen as part of a longer walk or boat ride between Kedar Ghat and Someshwar Ghat, where the character of the riverfront — rather than any single monument — is the main draw.
