Prayagraj
Where the Ganga, Yamuna and the mythical Saraswati meet — the holiest confluence in India.
The Sacred Sangam City
Prayagraj — the ancient city of Prayag — is built around the Triveni Sangam, the meeting point of three rivers. A dip here is held to be among the most meritorious acts a devotee can perform, and the city has hosted the Kumbh Mela for centuries.
We arrange a private boat to the actual sangam point, ritual assistance with a purohit where you wish it, and time at the Bade Hanuman Ji temple, Anand Bhavan and the Khusro Bagh heritage quarter.
Prayagraj completes the VaranasiΓÇôPrayagrajΓÇôAyodhya triangle, and is also our gateway for guests extending to Chitrakoot.
