This great grand spiritual gathering is taken place at the Triveni Sangam ghat at Prayagraj. This is the place where the three holy rivers Ganga, Yamuna and the mythical Saraswati unite. River Saraswati is the mythical river believed to be emerging from within the ground where Ganga and Yamuna meets. It’s believed in Hindu mythology that there was once a conflict occurred between the gods and the demons during Samundra Manthan (churning of ocean) to extract the Amrit (ambrosia) from the water. When this Amrit came out filled in a pot called as kumbh, Lord Vishnu flew away taking amrit with him on His Garuda. He spilled some drops of amrit during his flight at 4 different locations on the earth which then turned the rivers of this location holy and blessed these places as the most sacred one for mankind.
