Panch Prayag offers the confluence of five rivers in the Garhwal district of Uttarakhand. The word ‘Prayag’ indicates the junction or meeting point of two or more rivers. The legendary belief behind the division of five streams is that when Ganga was descending, Lord Shiva divided it into five streams through His force and power.
