## Branding

- Logo and favicon use the Vanakkam Kashi mark (lotus + namaste hands + wordmark) supplied by the owner.
- Per-page contextual hero banners (Kashi Vishwanath for About, Ayodhya Dham for Destinations, Naimisharanya for Packages, Phewa Lake for Gallery, etc.).
- Single `<h1>` per page, full meta + Open Graph + Twitter cards, JSON-LD TravelAgency schema.

## Contact

- **Email only:** vanakamkashi@gmail.com
- No phone number, WhatsApp, or social media links — by design.
- Contact form opens the user's email client and pre-fills a message to vanakamkashi@gmail.com.

## Deployment

Upload the entire contents of this folder to your web server's public directory (typically `public_html/`), preserving the folder structure.

The site is configured for `https://gokashi.in/`. If your domain differs, find-and-replace `gokashi.in` across `.html` and `.xml` files and update canonical URLs.

After upload: visit a non-existent URL to confirm the 404 page works, verify HTTPS forcing via `.htaccess`, and submit `sitemap.xml` to Google Search Console.

## Tech

- Pure HTML5 / CSS3 / vanilla JavaScript — no build step.
- Apache `.htaccess` for production server config (HTTPS, gzip, caching, security headers).
- Google Fonts: Cinzel, Lato, Playfair Display.
- Google Maps embed on Contact page.
