Kashi, also known as Varanasi or Banaras, is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world and holds immense spiritual significance in India. Situated on the banks of the sacred Ganges River in the state of Uttar Pradesh, Kashi is often referred to as the "Spiritual Capital of India." The name "Kashi" comes from the Sanskrit root ‘Kas’, meaning ‘to shine’—a fitting name for a city believed to be a beacon of enlightenment and salvation.Kashi is deeply intertwined with Hindu mythology and philosophy. It is said to have been founded by Lord Shiva himself, making it one of the holiest cities for Hindus. According to belief, dying in Kashi grants moksha (liberation from the cycle of rebirth), a desire for many devout Hindus.
Kashi is famed for its ghats—stone steps leading down to the Ganges—each with its own significance. Dashashwamedh Ghat, Assi Ghat, and Manikarnika Ghat (a major cremation ground) are particularly well-known. Every evening, the Ganga Aarti ceremony, with its synchronized chanting, fire rituals, and spiritual fervor, draws pilgrims and tourists alike.
