Though Ganga (Ganges) is the holiest of all rivers, the confluence of the 3 rivers Ganga, Jamuna and Saraswati together in Prayag was considered to be very important. (Saraswati may have existed before, but sceptics are doubtful. Some say it has dried up).Prayag is in Allahabad.
Himalayan saints and sages who make their rare appearance at Kumbh Mela in Prayag, the confluence of the Ganges, Jamuna, and mythical Saraswati Rivers. There the saints come down from their remote caves in the Himalayas only once every 12 years in order to bless the people.
Ganga is believed to have flown down from heaven and got entangled in the dreadlocks of Shiva, the destroyer of evil (one of the Trinity of Hindu Gods).
According to Hindu mythology, if the dying person drinks a drop of Ganga's water, he ais absolved of all his/ her sins and attains salvation. A lot of cremation is also done in the banks of Ganga river and the ashes immersed in the water to purify the dead person's soul (This has led to pollution!)
