Triveni Sangam

In Hindu tradition, Triveni Sangam is the confluence (Sanskrit: sangama) of three rivers that is a sacred place, with a bath here said to flush away all of one's sins and free one from the cycle of rebirth.

[5] At the Triveni Sangam, the distinct characteristics of the rivers are visible: the Ganges flows with clear water[verification needed], while the Yamuna appears greenish.

It marks the confluence of rivers Hiran, Kapila and the Saraswati, where they meet the Arabian Sea on the west coast of India.

At present, due to the changing course of the river in this extremely geologically active Bengal delta region, the Jamuna river of Bengal has almost disappeared and the stream of Saraswati is also rather thin, but in the past all three channels used to carry significant portions of the flow.

[citation needed] Triveni Dham is a confluence of three rivers, Sona, Tamasa and Sapta Gandaki located in Binayi Tribeni Rural Municipality, Nawalparasi district of Nepal.

It is considered sacred as a river confluence (kudala or triveni sangama, in Kannada and Sanskrit respectively).
