Allahabad Triveni Sangam is the meeting point of three rivers: the Ganga, the Yamuna and the invisible Sarasvati. Devout Hindus come to this sacred pilgrimage point to offer prayers and take a dip in the holy waters.

Every 12 years Kumbh Mela is held there. Kumbh Mela is a mass Hindu pilgrimage of faith in which Hindus gather to bathe in a sacred or holy river. In 2017 Kumbh Mela got inscribed to the UNESCO's Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
