A symbolic stand-in for Prayagraj

Prayag Ghat

Prayag Ghat takes its name from Prayagraj (Allahabad), the city at the confluence of the Ganga and Yamuna, and functions as a symbolic substitute for pilgrims unable to make the journey to the actual Sangam.

This pattern — a ghat or temple in Kashi standing in for a more distant, harder-to-reach pilgrimage site — recurs throughout the riverfront, and Prayag Ghat is one of its clearer examples, sitting conveniently between Dashashwamedh and Rajendra Prasad ghats.
