Prayagraj, formerly known as Allahabad, is one of India’s most sacred cities, where spirituality and history converge beautifully. Known as the “City of Sangam,” Prayagraj sits at the confluence of three holy rivers: the Ganges, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati. This ancient city has been a center for pilgrimage, learning, and spirituality for thousands of years, drawing seekers from across the world. With Hericult Tours, immerse yourself in the spiritual essence and cultural grandeur of Prayagraj, discovering its timeless beauty and vibrant traditions.
1. Experience the Divine Sangam
The Triveni Sangam, the meeting point of the Ganges, Yamuna, and Saraswati rivers, is the heart of Prayagraj and the site of the world-renowned Kumbh Mela, the largest religious gathering on Earth. This sacred confluence is believed to cleanse sins and purify the soul, making it one of the most revered sites in Hinduism. Our tour includes a serene boat ride to the Sangam, where you can take part in traditional rituals, offer prayers, or simply absorb the profound spiritual energy of this unique location. For those visiting during Kumbh, we ensure an unforgettable experience, giving you front-row access to one of India’s greatest spiritual celebrations.
2. Discover Historical Monuments and Colonial Architecture
Prayagraj is not only a spiritual center but also a city of rich historical heritage. With Hericult Tours, you’ll explore landmarks such as the iconic Allahabad Fort, built by Emperor Akbar in 1583. This stunning fort, located at the confluence of the rivers, is a masterpiece of Mughal architecture. Inside the fort, you’ll find the mysterious Ashoka Pillar, covered with ancient inscriptions, and the Patalpuri Temple, an underground shrine that holds immense historical and religious significance.
Our tour also includes visits to other colonial landmarks like the Anand Bhawan, the ancestral home of the Nehru family, where India’s modern political journey began. The colonial architecture and historical significance of Anand Bhawan offer a fascinating insight into India’s freedom struggle and legacy.
3. Sacred Temples and Places of Worship
Prayagraj is home to several ancient temples and sacred sites that offer a glimpse into its profound spiritual legacy. From the peaceful Hanuman Temple, where a massive idol of a reclining Hanuman is worshiped, to the Alopi Devi Temple, famous for its unique deity representation, Prayagraj’s temples are both awe-inspiring and deeply significant.

The calm and sacred ambiance of these temples provides a welcome respite from the bustling city life, making each visit a serene experience.
4. The Majestic Ganga Aarti at Saraswati Ghat
One of the most mesmerizing experiences in Prayagraj is the Ganga Aarti at Saraswati Ghat.
