Kumbh Mela is a major pilgrimage and religious festival in India, which is held every 12 years in rotation at the four holy places of Haridwar, Allahabad, Ujjain and Nasik. Attendees at the Kumbh Mela come from all sections of Hindu religious life, ranging from sadhus (holy men), who remain naked year-round.

The term Kumbh comes from this mythic pot of elixir, but it is also the Hindi name for Aquarius, the sign of the zodiac in which Jupiter resides during the Haridwar Mela.
