Banaras also known as Varanasi, or Benares, is a city on the banks of the river Ganges, Uttar Pradesh, India. Banaras is a city in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh dating to the 11th century B.C. Regarded as the spiritual capital of India, the city draws Hindu pilgrims who bathe in the Ganges River’s sacred waters and perform funeral rites. Along the city’s winding streets are some 2,000 temples, including Kashi Vishwanath, the “Golden Temple,” dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva

Varanasi is a sacred place, which is visited by a great number of tourists throughout the year. This place has a lot to offer to its visitors, leaving them enthralled. From beautiful mesmerizing temples to the heavenly Ganga Shanahan, which is believed to wipe off the sins of the believers, there’s a lot that this city has in store for its guests.

Varanasi grew as an important industrial center famous for its muslin and silk fabrics, perfumes, ivory works, and sculpture.
