The Kashi Vishwanath temple of Varanasi is dedicated to Lord Shiva by the name of Vishwanath or Vishweshwara which denotes to “Ruler of the world”. It is considered to be one of the oldest temples according to Sanatan Dharma and is also one of the twelve Jyotirlingas. People believe that the jyotirlinga manifested by itself in this holy land.
