Prayagraj Tour Packages — Triveni Sangam & Kumbh Mela Support
UP Holidays plans Prayagraj visits around the Triveni Sangam, city temples, and the logistics that large Mela gatherings demand.
Overview
Prayagraj and the confluence of three rivers
Prayagraj, formerly Allahabad, is built around the Triveni Sangam — the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna and the mythical Saraswati. It is the site of the Kumbh and Magh Mela gatherings, among the largest human gatherings on earth, alongside a quieter year-round pilgrimage and heritage circuit.
Outside Mela season, Prayagraj offers a calmer pace: a boat ritual at the Sangam, the Bade Hanuman Ji Temple, and Anand Bhavan, the Nehru family residence turned museum. During Mela periods, logistics change substantially, and UP Holidays plans accordingly.
