Which of the following places is called the spiritual capital of India?
Varanasi
Varanasi (Kashi or Banaras), on the banks of the Ganga in Uttar Pradesh, is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world.
It is home to the Kashi Vishwanath Temple and many ghats, and it is the most sacred city for Hindus, so it is called the Spiritual Capital of India.
Puri is known for the Jagannath Temple, Agra for the Taj Mahal, and Jammu is called the 'City of Temples', but none of them carries this title.
Hence, the spiritual capital of India is Varanasi.
