Tour Itinerary

The history of Maha Kumbh dating back to the Puranas, mentions the story of Samudra Manthan. The Ksheer Saga, which translates as the ocean of milk, was churned with the help of Meru Mountain (used as a rod) and Vasuki, the serpent (used as rope to move the rod). Legend has it that because of this churning (Samudra Manthan), Amrit was produced which became instantly the bone of contention between the Devas (gods) and Asuras(devils). This fight was concluded within 12 days as the Gods won. It is said that during this fight, four drops of Amrit(nectar) fell on to the surface of earth, and hence the 4 places where every 12 years Maha Kumbh is organized.
