Ujjain

The city of temples, Ujjain allows an intimate meeting with the divine in its hallowed temples and an easy immersion into the country's profound cultural history.

The aroma of incense wafting through the air and devoted pilgrims flocking to the numerous temples to offer their prayers are a sight common in Ujjain. Known as one of the seven most sacred cities in India, it plays host to the Kumbh Mela which takes place once in 12 years and gathers over 100 million. Adorned with 108 temples, the city wonderfully exhibits the richness of the Hindu culture. The serene Shipra River, museums and palaces with a distinct style of architecture are an added bonus to this holy city. Home to the Mahakaleshwar Temple, one of the 12 Jyotirlingas in the country, it is the most vibrant during Nagpanchami and Mahashivratri.

Must Visit

To soak in the divine atmosphere and pay reverence to the deities, visiting the Shri Mahakaleshwar Temple and Kal Bhairav Temple is a must. Feel the tranquillity at Gomti Kund and when you take a dip in the Shipra River. Offer up your prayers through an aarti at Ram Ghat. Browse through history at the Triveni Museum and experience the festive fervour at Kumbh Mela.

The most fitting time to visit Ujjain would be the winter months spanning from October to March. The cool weather offers the opportunity to roam the streets and spend hours at temples without feeling uneasy or uncomfortable due to the heat. The festivities have the city in an uproar, especially in March when the Kumbh Mela is hosted here once every 12 years.
