Bengal has historically been the cradle of Hindu thought and spirituality. Ancient Vedic traditions have merged with indigenous folk practices in this land of the Ganga-Brahmaputra delta to create a unique form of Hinduism. It is home to Tribeni (ত্রিবেণী), a town which is considered the southern counterpart of Prayagraj. Located in the Bansberia municipality of Hooghly district, Tribeni witnesses the confluence of 3 rivers – Ganga, Yamuna and Saraswati.
