You find a lot of different kind of people there, pretty particular, it has its fashion... Cremation in public is so weird, here it would never be allowed for hygiene

The cleanest part of India - bodies are fully covered with fabric, like being in a cocoon, and then burned. It can become an issue if many bodies would stay waiting its time for cremation. For some reason, that doesn't happen. Obviously, it's very expensive to be cremated like that, although it looks quite "basic" - a pile of wood, fire by the river. They have electrical crematoriums in Varanasi - cheaper, as I told - most people are cremated there, as I know.
