The Purna Kumbh Mela, also known as the Maha Kumbh Mela, is a significant Hindu pilgrimage held every 12 years, rotating among four sacred locations: Prayagraj, Haridwar, Ujjain, and Nashik. In 2025, the Maha Kumbh Mela is being celebrated in Prayagraj from January 13 to February 26.

This year's event is particularly noteworthy due to rare celestial alignments that occur once every 144 years, enhancing its spiritual significance. Devotees gather at the Triveni Sangam—the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati rivers—to take a holy dip, a ritual believed to purify the soul and aid in attaining moksha (liberation).
