What Is There for Modern Travellers?

The Maha Kumbh Mela 2025 provides a rare chance to be part of a historic and spiritually enriching event, combining age-old traditions with modern amenities to cater to the needs of contemporary travellers.

Eco-Conscious Travel And Tech-Savvy Experience:

This year the government of India has also taken some river protection initiatives as part of their preparations for the big event. To maintain the sanctity and cleanliness of the Ganga and Yamuna rivers, three temporary sewage treatment plants has been installed. 

Digital Innovations:

Digital innovations at the event this time include a dedicated mobile application that allows real-time access to crowd density, emergency messages, navigation information, and room details. All these will reduce visitor management on-site. Temporary hotspots at the site will also keep all visitors connected throughout so that they can share their experiences and get needed information on time. Google Maps integration will also make it easy to navigate the vast Mahakumbh area, so visitors will not have any problem finding their way around and locating key sites and amenities.
