The light of Kumbha Mela
Near Triveni Sangam – the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and Saraswati rivers – lies the ancient Indian city of Prayagraj (formerly Allahabad). Here a magnificent spiritual event, the Maha Kumbha Mela, takes place every twelve years. This sacred event attracts millions of devotees from all around the globe. They arrive for one reason: to take a dip in holy waters.
