Sangam is the Sanskrit word for confluence. The point of confluence is a sacred place for Hindus. Triveni Sangam is the confluence of three rivers. The Triveni Sangam in Prayag (Allahabad) is the confluence of two physical rivers Ganga, Yamuna, and the invisible or mythic Saraswati River. Devout Hindus from all over India come to this sacred pilgrimage point to offer prayers and take a dip in the holy waters. <a href="https://indroyc.com/2017/11/07/siberian-birds-at-the-sangam" rel="nofollow">indroyc.com/2017/11/07/siberian-birds-at-the-sangam</a>
