Varanasi The Holy City
Varanasi is a city in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh dating to
the 11th century B.C.E. Regarded as the spiritual capital of India, the
city draws pilgrims who bathe in the River Ganges’ sacred waters and
perform funeral rites. Along its winding streets are some 2,000 temples,
including Kashi Vishwanath, the “Golden Temple,” dedicated to the Hindu
god Shiva.
