I was indeed fortunate to join the grand spiritual gathering & experienced the vibrant culture, devotion and unity. This is an important Hindu pilgrimage, celebrated approximately every 6 and 12 years, correlated with the partial or full revolution of Jupiter
I Started Indigo 6E TRV to BLR at 6:00 am on 20.1.2025 Monday , then BLR to IXD at 10:30 am IST same day. Pleasantly surprised to meet and take a snap with the Humble Member of Parliament, writer Smt Sudha Murthy madam in BLR Prayagraj sector. Needless to say both the sectors were fully booked flights.
Four doctors including me planned the trip 2 months ahead and we united at Prayagraj airport. We found the roads decorated grandly with celebration fervor and technology enabled.
Triveni Sangam offers two primary locations for holy bathing:
Bathing Locations:
1. Allahabad Fort Area:
2. Sangam of Ganga and Yamuna
3. Adjacent ghats
Arail Ghat Area: Flows with blessed waters post-confluence. Can bathe between Aadi Veni Madhav Temple and Someswara Temple
Suitable for Bali tharpan at VIP ghat
Accommodation:
We had booked Tent city stay for 2 nights as per enquiry with a senior doctor who is a localite. The Luxury tents ⛺️ had all arrangements in good condition.

Important Bathing Guidelines
Take a boat to the confluence point
Boat timings: 5 AM to 5 PM
Restricted Timings: 9:30 AM to 12 noon reserved for Sanyasis and Aghori saints
It is Best to take a dip in the morning before saints arrive. No mandatory boat ride required if willing to take SNAAN (bathe) at adjacent ghats.
Recommended Preparation: Check Mahakumbh Mela sites for precise timings. Further details ✨️ MAHAKUMBH 2025 Prayagraj
TIPS
Obtain vehicle pass from district authorities
Plan your visit strategically to avoid crowded periods.
Remember to respect the sanctity of the location and follow local guidelines during your visit.
We had a great time with plenty of co-tourists joining us in the Holy dip. Enjoyable moments captured don't do justice to the vibrant Ambience as it has to be experienced on priority.
