Varanasi Tourist Information

Varanasi is a city in Uttar Pradesh, India, that dates back to the 11th century B.C. The city, known as India's spiritual capital, attracts Hindu pilgrims who bathe in the sacred waters of the Ganges River and perform burial rites. Some 2,000 temples dot the city's meandering lanes, including Kashi Vishwanath, the "Golden Temple," devoted to the Hindu god Shiva.Varanasi has long been a cultural center in northern India, and it is intimately identified with the Ganges. Hindus believe that dying here and being cremated along the banks of the "holy" Ganges river will allow them to end the cycle of rebirth and achieve salvation, making it a popular pilgrimage destination.The city is famous for its many ghats, or river embankments built out of stone slabs that pilgrims use to perform religious ablutions. The Dashashwamedh Ghat, Panchganga Ghat, Manikarnika Ghat, and Harishchandra Ghat are all noteworthy, with the last two serving as Hindu cremation sites. This is where Varanasi's Hindu genealogical registers are stored.
