Kumbh Mela is held at four sacred rivers: Prayagraj (Ganga-Yamuna-Saraswati), Haridwar (Ganga), Nashik (Godavari), and Ujjain (Shipra).
Taking a dip in the holy rivers during Kumbh Mela is believed to wash away sins and lead to liberation (moksha).
The festival dates back thousands of years and finds mention in Hindu scriptures like the Puranas.
The timing of Kumbh Mela is based on planetary positions, especially Jupiter and the Sun.
It is a rare occasion to witness and interact with sadhus, including Naga Sadhus, who live in seclusion.
