The Magh Mela is an important annual religious festival celebrated at the Sangam, the holy confluence of the Ganges, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati rivers. It is held in Prayagraj from Paush Purnima to Mahashivratri during the Hindu month of Magh. Devotees gather to take ritual baths, offer donations, and perform religious practices believed to bring spiritual merit. Many pilgrims observe Kalpavas, living simply on the riverbanks with disciplined routines involving meditation, chanting, charity, and early morning bathing at Brahma Muhurat.
