Listing files in apache server

I have installed Apache server in my system running Ubuntu 14.04. When I type localhost or my IP address in the browser, it is displaying the Apache page. Instead of that page, I need to list the contents (folder/files) in /var/www directory. How do I configure it?

You have to delete all files that have an index in der name. For example index.html or index.php. Because the webserver looks for this files and when it finds some he displays the site instead of the folder.
And I think in the newer versions of Apache the main site is in /var/www/html. So delete the file /var/www/html/index.html.

I hope this helps..
