About Destination

Prayagraj sits at the confluence (Sangam) of the Ganga, Yamuna, and mythical Saraswati rivers, making it one of Hinduism's most important pilgrimage sites and host city for the Kumbh Mela.

History

Known historically as Allahabad, the city has been a religious and administrative center since ancient times, renamed Prayagraj in 2018 to reflect its Sangam heritage.

Why Visit

Sangam boat rides, Akshaya Vat, Allahabad Fort, and the Anand Bhawan museum make it a strong weekend destination for both pilgrimage and heritage travel.

Climate

Hot summers, monsoon Jul–Sep, mild winters Oct–Mar — winter is best for river visits and outdoor sightseeing.
