• Raghunath Jew Temple - Located in Devprayag, India, the Raghunath Temple is an ancient and revered Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Rama, an avatar of Vishnu, worshipped here as Raghunathji. Situated at the sacred confluence of the Alaknanda and Bhagirathi rivers, which form the Ganges, the temple holds immense religious significance.

Historically, it was established or rebuilt by the philosopher Adi Shankaracharya in the 8th century and later expanded by the Garhwal kings.

• Devprayag - Devprayag Sangam in Devprayag, India, is a profoundly sacred site where the two holy rivers, Bhagirathi and Alaknanda, merge to form the Ganges, one of the most revered rivers in Hinduism. The confluence is considered the official starting point of the Ganga and holds immense religious and mythological significance.

According to Hindu mythology, King Bhagirath performed intense penance to bring the heavenly Ganges to Earth to purify the ashes of his ancestors. The Bhagirathi River is regarded as the celestial descent of the Ganga, while the Alaknanda, originating near Badrinath, symbolizes devotion and penance. Their merging at Devprayag symbolizes the union of the divine and earthly waters, creating a holy river essential for purification and spiritual redemption.

The name “Devprayag” means “Godly Confluence,” reflecting its sacred status.
