Allahabad now renamed Prayagraj is the one of the most venerated City in India dating back to even vedic period.  This city is at the confluence of 3  mighty rivers of India - The Ganga, Yamuna and the Saraswathi(now invisible).   Known for its religious significance to Hindus in terms of having a snan at The Triveni ( 3 Rivers meeting point) Sangam, it attracts lot of religious tourists apart from those interested in normal travel too. It is also the city which is connected with more than Prime Ministers of India  1.      Jawaharlal Nehru 2.      Lal Bahadur Shastri, 3.       Indira Gandhi,  4.      Rajiv Gandhi,  5.      Gulzarilal Nanda,  6.      Vishwanath Pratap Singh and  7.      Chandra Shekhar  The city accessible by Air, Train and roadways always has tourists  coming in and going out.   The Kumbh Mela held once in 12 years sees the maximum number of people descending on the city.
