VaranasiRamnagar Fort
Ramnagar Fort is the riverside fort-palace of the Kashi Naresh — the Maharaja of Banaras — who is revered in Kashi tradition as the earthly representative of Shiva and the ceremonial protector of the city. Built in the mid-eighteenth century on the eastern bank of the Ganga opposite the ghats, it is above all the seat of the world-famous month-long Ramnagar Ramlila, a living enactment of the Ramayana held to be the most complete in India.

Maa Chandika Devi is worshipped in Kashi as the fierce-protective form of the Mother — the Chandika of the Devi Mahatmya, who slays the asura generals Chand and Mund and through whom the Goddess's sovereignty over adharma is held to be most decisive.
