Varanasi, also known as Banaras, is one of the oldest cities in the world and has deep significance in Hindu pilgrimage. The city has Shri Kashi Vishwanath Temple, which is one of the sacred 12 Jyotirlingas, and it is famous for the ghat Aarti. People visit Banaras for Ganga Aarti on the ghat, which is a major attraction of Varanasi and has a spiritual atmosphere to experience. Also, a Kashi corridor has enhanced Jyotirlinga temple darshan.

Each ghat in Varanasi has deep ritual importance, such as Assi Ghat and Dashashwamedh Ghat, which are famous for the evening Ganga Aarti. Manikarnika Ghat and Harishchandra Ghat are designated for Hindu cremation; it is believed to grant Moksha to those who are cremated here.
