716 Properties in Varanasi
Varanasi, also known as Benares or Kashi, is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world, located on the banks of the sacred Ganges River in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. This ancient city is a major cultural and religious hub, revered as the spiritual capital of India. It is a significant pilgrimage destination for Hindus, who believe that dying here and being cremated along the Ganges allows one to attain moksha, or liberation from the cycle of rebirth.
The city is renowned for its ghats, which are series of steps leading down to the river, where pilgrims perform ritual ablutions. The most famous of these is the Dashashwamedh Ghat, known for its vibrant Ganga Aarti, a spiritual ritual involving fire and music that takes place every evening. Varanasi is also home to the Kashi Vishwanath Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva, which is one of the twelve Jyotirlingas, the holiest of Shiva temples.
Varanasi is a center of learning and civilization for over 3,000 years, with a rich tradition of music, arts, and crafts. The city is famous for its Banarasi silk sarees, intricate handicrafts, and classical music. The Banaras Hindu University, one of the largest residential universities in Asia, is located here, contributing to the city's vibrant academic atmosphere.
The narrow winding lanes of Varanasi are filled with small shops selling everything from religious items to local snacks. The city is also known for its street food, offering delicacies like kachori, chaat, and the famous Banarasi paan. Varanasi's unique blend of spirituality, history, and culture makes it a must-visit destination for travelers seeking an authentic Indian experience.
