Varanasi, also known as Kashi or Banaras, is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world and holds a central place in Hindu spirituality. At the heart of this ancient city are its iconic ghats, riverfront steps leading down to the sacred waters of the River Ganges. These ghats, numbering over 80, are not just architectural marvels but also serve as spiritual hubs, witnessing a constant flow of pilgrims, seekers, and devotees engaged in various religious rituals and practices. In this overview, we explore the significance of Varanasi's iconic ghats and their profound spiritual importance in Hindu tradition.
