Triveni Sangam In Somnath Gujarat

The Triveni Ghat has been frequently mentioned in the Vedas and Purans. It literally means 'the holy confluence of three rivers' - Kapila, Hiran and Saraswati. Its confluence with the ocean is also a sacred 'moksha tirtha' (salvation pilgrimage) for Hindus. It also finds mentions in the Mahabharata, as it is believed that the Pandavas had visited the place to take a holy bath and built five temples of Lord Shiva here too. Temples like Lakshminarayan temple and Gita Mandir are located on the banks of the ghat.
