Varanasi, famous pilgrimage site in India

Varanasi is probably the only place on today's planet that has continued to be a bustling city for over 3,000 years.

Since India is a self-recognized country of religion, there are many holy places of various names, but Varanasi on the Ganga River is the best among them, so pilgrims continue to follow.

Varanasi, a place where people with different stories constantly hang out in a place where people with different stories live.

Each grain of sand along the river is likely to have its own story told by people.

The pilgrims who flock to each other without interruption for a moment are to express their reverence to the goddess Ganga and the god Shiva.

Shiva is one of the Hindu gods.

The god of creation is Brahma, and the god of maintenance is the god Vishnu.

Once upon a time, it is said that a saint petitioned the gods to grant a wide and deep river to alleviate the suffering of the human world due to lack of water.

The gods, moved by the saint's supreme sincerity, eventually agreed to grant the request, and recommended the goddess Ganga, who was flowing and supplying water to the heavens, to extend the flow to the earth. It is said that if it flows down from heaven to the earth, there will be great chaos on the earth.

It is said that the right person who appeared next was God Shiva, who not only had the strength to withstand the goddess Ganga, who had a huge amount of water on her head, but also had abundant hair that could be used as a path for the river to run down.

For this reason, Varanasi was the best place for the ashes to be sprinkled after it was set on fire after decorating the last moments of life.
