	Varanasi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The official name, Varanasi, is not a modern name: the city lies between where the Varuna River, to the north, and the Assi River, to the south, flow into the Ganges.
		Varanasi is considered as the most sacred place of pilgrimage for Hindus irrespective of denomination.
		The name Varanasi is derived from two tributaries of the Ganges, one in the north end of the city, called Varunā and the other in the south end, called Assi (now reduced to a water-drain).
