A beautiful place and enough lanai as we stayed in a oyo the view was ultimately peaceful, theres a big stone just beneath the bridge that connects both sides of the river ,sitting there and enjoying river is good.A suggestion to those who wanna visit Devprayag is a place to visit on the go not a place to stay ,during these days as the railway is being set up that part so it might be hard to find a stay as most of the hotels are full.

This is the view for lifetime. I bet you havent seen anything like this before. Such a wonderful and colorful scene of river confluence. The bold and distinct colors of rivers Alaknanda and Bhagirathi makes the entire place so lively and awestruck. Bhagirathi (Greenish in color) emerges from gangotri and Alaknanda (Muddy in color) emerges from Badrinath. Their confluence is known as Devprayag. People visits this place specially to take a holy dip. Nothing much to do beyond taking a dip. If you are around Haridwar or Rishikesh this place is a must visit.

Devprayag : Origin of Ganges one must visit.Devprayag is a holy place, where the Alaknanda river which comes from Satopanth & the other one Bhagirathi which comes from Gaumukh joins each other & their merger becomes Ganges. The Alaknanda which has dusty color & the Bhagirathi which mostly has bluish clean water joins each other. The Bhagirathi is always very aggressive while the Alaknanda is generally calm in flowing.The place hardly has an altitude of around 1300 meteers only but its a must visit when crossing the place.One can spend few minutes here watching the confluence of both the rivers. One stop at this place everytime crossing the point.

The place is just divine.Difficult to express in words, when 2 rivers meet Aleksanda and Bhagirathi to form the mighty Ganga.You will see calm river on one side and stormy river on other , the confluence has a different vibe. Like opposites attract this is perfect example of that.Do not litter there, if you want to take bath, carry pair of clothes.

Auspiciously beautiful place to see rivers Alaknanda and bhagirathi meet to officially kickstart the named river Ganga.Usually the river Alaknanda would have the same color and clearity like its counterpart bhagirathi but given the amou nt of construction happening in the valley (200km rail project upto karnaparayag), the river turned out to be muddy during my visit.

Review №58

In Sanskrit, prayag means ‘confluence’ and Devprayag stands for ‘holy confluence’. Devprayag is the confluence of two holy rivers Alaknanda and Bhagirathi to form Ganga. According to religious scriptures, Devprayag is one of the five important holy confluences. Rivers like Bhagirathi, Alaknanda & the mythological river Saraswati (flowing underground) meet to from the River Ganga. River Bhagirathi originates from Gangotri and Alaknanda originates from Badrinath, both of which are considered sacred destinations for Hindus across the world. Devprayag is the last prayag of River Alaknanda. Religiously, the site is very sacred and holds immense significance among the Hindu followers. It is believed that Lord Rama and the King Dushratha did penance here. There is an ancient temple of Raghunathji built above the confluence with massive rocks. It is believed that the temple was built more than ten thousand years ago. There is a small water spring called Baitalshila, which is believed to have powers to cure leprosy. Devprayag is also hugely blessed with divine natural beauty and showers tourists with its serenity. The place is accessible throughout the year and can be visited anytime. Try avoiding Devprayag during monsoons, when the water level rises and there are chances of roads getting blocked due to landslides. Devprayag is a small town situated in Tehri Garhwal district in the state of Uttarakhand, located on the Rishikhesh-Badrinath highway.

Devprayag lies at the confluence of river Alaknanda where it meets Bhagirathi and attains the form of the holy Ganga thereon. The color of both rivers and even the temperature of water is different. U can see a lot of fishes in the clean water. Flour dough is also available for feeding fishes. It is a beautiful sight to see two rivers of different characteristics merging. Words or pictures cannot describe what it actually looks like. Must visit and see this beauty.

I personally liked this place as this was the first time I saw confluence of two rivers.It was a pretty different experience for me, as I headed towards the Ghat (Sangam), the ambience was different from Rishikesh or any other place or Ghat I visited.I will recommend, to do visit this place once in life or if you are heading towards kedarnath or if you are there in Rishikesh and like to explore new places.It was hardly 75 kms from Rishikesh. I made it from Rishikesh within 2 hours by scooter (access).

Devprayag has its own unique history. This town is a place of Pandits who belongs to Badrinath Dham. Those who do not know where the rise of the Ganges is due to them, we should tell them that the birth of Ganga starts from here after the merging of two rivers named as Bhagirathi and Alaknanda. Bhagirthi comes from Gangotri and Alaknanda comes from  Satopanth and Bhagirath Kharak glaciers.Situated at the confluence of the Alaknanda and the Bhagirathi, the town of Devaprayag lies at an altitude of 472 m. on the metalled road running from Rishikesh to Badrinath and about 87 km. from Narendra Nagar. The town is the headquarters of the tehsil of the same name and is one of the five sacred prayags (confluences) of the Alaknanda. Tradition has it that the town is named after Dev sharma, a sage, who led a life of penance here and succeeded in having a glimpse of God.The lovely and divine beauty of this town attracts the lot of tourists here and it is also believed that Lord Rama and King Dushratha did meditation here. For the tourists who have a devotion faith in their heart, the ancient and great temple of Raghunathji is claimed to have been erected some ten thousand years ago and is built of massive uncemented stones. It stands upon a terrace in the upper part of the town and consists of an irregular pyramid capped by a white cupola with a golden ball and spire. Religious ablutions take place at 2 basins excavated in the rock at the junction of the holy streams – on the Bhagirathi known as the Brahm Kund and the other on the Alaknanda called the Vasisht Kund. The temple, along with the other Buildings of the town, was shattered by an earthquake in 1803 but the damage was subsequently repaired through the munificence of Daulat Rao Sindhia. The temple is visited by a large number of pilgrims every year.Besides the temple of Raghunathji, there are in the town Baital Kund,Brahm Kund,Surya Kund and Vasisht Kund; the Indradyumna Tirth,Pushyamal Tirth, Varah Tirth ; Pushpavatika ; Baitalshila and Varahishila ; the shrines of Bhairava, Bhushandi, Durga and Vishveshvara ; and a temple dedicated to Bharata. A bath at Baithalshila is claimed to cure leprosy.Nearby is the Dasharathachal Peak, containing a rock, known as Dashrathshila, on which Raja Dasharath is said to have led a life of penance.A small stream, the shanta running down from the Dasharathachal, is named after Shanta, the daughter of Raja Dasharath and is considered to be sacred.
