Gangasagar Tour from Kolkata
“Sob tirtho bar bar, Gangasagar Ekbar…”
This timeless proverb has resonated with Bengali cultured people from ancient times to the modern digital age. The allure of Gangasagar Mela holds immense cultural and spiritual significance for all Hindu pilgrims who come to bathe in the holy waters of the Ganga River, seeking to cleanse and purify their minds and souls. According to myth, bathing in the Ganga River here absolves one of all sins. The number of devotees attending the Mela grows each year, making this festival a grand occasion where thousands immerse themselves in the sacred waters and worship Lord Surya.
According to Hindu scriptures, the Ganga is considered the most sacred river in India, originating from Gangotri and completing its journey in Sagardwip, where it merges with the Bay of Bengal. After taking a holy dip, pilgrims also visit the temple of Kapil Muni, a revered saint in Hindu mythology. The fair occurs on Makar Sankranti, celebrated annually on either the 14th or 15th of January.
