Triveni




Triveni is a bathing ghat located in Saptagram area of Hooghly District. Nityananda Prabhu is said to have bathed in this sacred place.

The place got this name as it was the confluence of the three sacred rivers - the Ganges, Yamuna and Sarasvati. River Sarasvati is not visible presently. The house for Chaitanya Mahaprabhu is located here and the foot prints of Lord Chaitanya can also be seen here.

Triveni can be approached by traveling 50 km from Kolkata to Saptagram.
