Shringverpur Mahotsav: Reliving the Revered Journey of Lord Ram and Nishadraj

Every year, Shringverpur Dham in Prayagraj hosts the five-day National Ramayana Fair, which is also known as Shringverpur Mahotsav, celebrated from Devutthaan Ekadashi to Kartik Purnima. Dedicated to national unity, integrity and world peace, the fair brings together spirituality, culture and traditional arts at a place deeply connected with the journey of Lord Ram during his exile.

 

On the banks of the Ganga in Shringverpur Dham, one of Prayagraj's most important spiritual and historical sites, the National Ramayana Fair is celebrated every year with great enthusiasm. Organised over five days, from Kartik Shukla Paksha Devutthaan Ekadashi to Kartik Purnima, the fair has been held continuously since 1990 with the vision of promoting national unity, integrity and world peace.

 

Shringverpur Dham is revered as the kingdom of Nishadraj and the tapobhoomi of Rishi Shringi. According to tradition, it was here that Shri Ram, Mata Sita and Lakshman Ji crossed the Ganga by boat with the help of Nishadraj during their journey into exile. This association has made Shringverpur one of the most respected pilgrimage destinations connected with the Ramayana.

The fair offers a blend of spiritual and cultural experiences through devotional programmes, cultural performances and community participation. Visitors can also explore stalls featuring Moonj products, a traditional eco-friendly craft handwoven by local rural women using wild Moonj grass to create baskets, mats, bags and other utility items.

A visit to the fair is also an opportunity to savour the flavours of Prayagraj, including Allahabadi Tehri, the popular Samosa-Jalebi combo and Kachori Sabzi, all of which are local favourites enjoyed by visitors.

Bringing together faith, heritage, local craftsmanship and traditional cuisine, the National Ramayana Fair offers a memorable experience while highlighting the rich cultural identity of Prayagraj.
