'''Benares''' (now '''Varanasi'''), the Holy City of the Hindus, gives its name to a district and division in the [[United Provinces]] of India. It is one of the most ancient cities in the world. On the left bank of the Ganges, it is an important site of pilgrimage and is characterised by the burning ghats along the river.
