हिन्दी
नेपाल के राजवंश ने काशी में अपने तीर्थ-निवास बनवाते समय इस घाट का भी निर्माण कराया। घाट के ऊपर गंगा केशव मंदिर है — नदी के विष्णु रूप को समर्पित यह स्थान पड़ोस के नेपाली पगोडा से अलग ही शैली रखता है। घाट की सीढ़ियां साफ हैं और ललिता से बाउली घाट तक किनारा शांत है। सुबह-शाम यहां स्थानीय परिवार और थोड़े पर्यटक दोनों दिखते हैं।
