Kumbh Mela is celebrated at four places in India: Nasik, Ujjain, Haridwar and Allahabad.
The last time, in 2001, when the Maha Kumbh Mela was held here, nearly 60 million took a bath at Sangam (The point where three holy rivers Ganga, Yamuna & Saraswati meet), and several thousand others bore witness to the grandness of the event. After 12 long years, the wait is finally over as the Maha Kumbh is once again back to where it belongs – Allahabad.
Kumbh Mela is the largest religious gathering in the world. In the year 2013, it's the turn of the holy city Allahabad to host this religious extravaganza.
From 27th January to 25th February, the banks of the Sangam will once again be in an uproar as millions of devout and commoners alike will make the place their temporary homes and the sight of Sadhus (ascetic and sages), the guardians of the faith; Naga Sadhus, covering their naked bodies with ash; and Mahants lured to come out of their hideouts in forests, mountains, and caves, charging towards the Sangam to take a holy dip in the waters at the appointed time will once again make up for the visual dazzle. It´s believed that bathing here will free one from all the past sins, thereby liberating him from the cycle of life and death.
Famous for its culture and contemporary heritage, the city of Allahabad will once again become a major attraction for global tourists too willing to witness the greatest expression of Indian religion.
If you want to see this highest event of Indian culture, you need to plan fast and book your Kumbh Trip.
