Experience the confluence point of three holy rivers- Ganges, Yamuna, and the mystical Saraswati, at Triveni Sangam. Witness the mesmerising view of the sunrise and sunset while enjoying the boat rides. This holy site holds myths and beliefs in Hinduism and is visited by a large number of pilgrims throughout the year.
Get to know the mass Hindu pilgrimage of Kumbh Mela at Allahabad's Kumbh Mela Ground. Also known as the largest peaceful gathering in the world, the festival takes place in four different cities of India every 12 years and draws many people from all over the world. The tents, shops, and vivid processions reflect the vibrant culture of India, making it a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Explore the ancestral house of Jawaharlal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of India's freedom. The two-story colonial-style building boasts possession of Nehru's personal belongings, photographs, and an Art Gallery where World War II Memorabilia and Decorative Art Pieces are displayed. The stunning garden, old-world furniture, and a good collection of books related to the Indian Freedom movement add historical significance to this attraction.
If you're visiting during the Kumbh Mela, make sure to keep everything beforehand (accommodation, tickets, etc.) as the prices may hike and demand exceeds the supply. If you have more time, then visit All Saints Cathedral, a 19th-century architectural marvel, and Allahabad Fort, situated near the Triveni Sangam. In case of less time, skip the Kumbh Mela Ground and head to the planetarium or the Allahabad museum.
