Overview

 

Varanasi, also known as Kashi or Benares, is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world and is considered the spiritual capital of India. Located on the banks of the River Ganges in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh, Varanasi holds immense religious significance for Hindus, Buddhists, and Jains.

 Highlights:

  • Religious Significance: Hindus believe dying in Varanasi and being cremated on the banks of the Ganges grants moksha (liberation from the cycle of rebirth).

  • Ghats: The city is famous for its ghats—stone steps leading down to the river—especially Dashashwamedh Ghat and Manikarnika Ghat (a major cremation site).

  • Temples: The Kashi Vishwanath Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva, is one of the most revered temples in India.

  • Culture & Learning: Varanasi is a center of music, arts, and learning, home to the famous Banaras Hindu University (BHU).

  • Spiritual Atmosphere: Daily rituals, Ganga Aarti, and a sense of timelessness attract pilgrims and tourists alike.

Mark Twain once wrote, “Benares is older than history, older than tradition, older even than legend, and looks twice as old as all of them put together.
