Top 5 Must-Visit Temples in Varanasi Beyond Kashi Vishwanath

While Kashi Vishwanath is the heart of Varanasi, the city is home to thousands of temples. Here are 5 you shouldn't miss:

1. Sankat Mochan Hanuman Temple: Founded by Tulsidas, this temple is filled with peace (and monkeys!). The besan laddoos here are famous.
2. Durga Temple (Monkey Temple): Located near Durga Kund, this red-stoned temple is a stunning example of Nagara architecture.
3. New Vishwanath Temple (BHU): Located inside the Banaras Hindu University campus, it has the tallest temple tower in the world.
4. Tulsi Manas Temple: Built where Tulsidas wrote the Ramcharitmanas. The walls are engraved with verses from the epic.
5. Kaal Bhairav Temple: Known as the 'Kotwal of Kashi' (Guard of Varanasi). It is said one must visit here to get permission to stay in the city.
