How to reach Jaunpur
Jaunpur sits on the Gomti river in eastern Uttar Pradesh, well connected by rail and road, with Varanasi airport the nearest place to fly into.
By train
Jaunpur has several stations. Jaunpur Junction (JNU) is the main one and the usual arrival point. Jaunpur City (JOP) sits closer to the centre of town, and Shahganj Junction (SHG) serves the wider district. From Jaunpur Junction, Vaibhav Hotel is about 4.7 km, roughly 15 minutes by auto.
By air
The nearest airport is Lal Bahadur Shastri Airport in Varanasi, about 39 km from Jaunpur. Taxis are available at the airport, and the drive usually takes an hour to an hour and a half depending on traffic.
By road
Jaunpur is reached by road from Varanasi, Lucknow, Allahabad (Prayagraj) and Azamgarh, with regular bus services. Wazidpur Tiraha, where the hotel is, is a junction on the main route through the city, so it is simple to find.
Getting around town
Autos and shared autos are the normal way to move around Jaunpur. Most of the monuments are within a few kilometres of each other, so a half-day by auto covers the main sights.
