Kumbh Mela or Kumbha Mela

Kumbh Mela is the largest religious gathering in the world that occurs only once in 12 years. Over 25 million people will bathe in the Ganges on the peak bathing day alone on the New Moon. It is a religious spectacle that has no parallel in the world. The sight of devotees taking a dip in the holy river is a beholding sight. The crowds, the chants, people jostling to the river, the bhajans, the beating drums and above all, a faith that sustains to endure all the hardships makes it a greatest attraction for tourists round the world.
