Domestic and foreign tourists amazed by the transformation of Prayagraj

Prayagraj : Even ahead of Mahakumbh 2025, set to take place in January-February, Prayagraj is already witnessing a significant influx of visitors from across India and even from Malaysia.

Pilgrims are arriving to take a holy dip at the Sangam, drawn not only by the spiritual significance of the site, but also by the transformative work carried out under Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s leadership.

A group from Malaysia was spotted bathing and meditating at the Sangam, praising the positive changes happening in the state. Additionally, a group from South India, consisting of IT professionals and chartered accountants, was seen on the banks of the Sangam.

These individuals, employed in various multinational companies, visited Ayodhya, the sacred city of Lord Shri Ram, and then traveled to Prayagraj to observe the preparations for Mahakumbh 2025. Next on their journey is a visit to the city of Baba Vishwanath in Varanasi.
