In a bid to accommodate the influx of devotees for Mahakumbh 2025, the Uttar Pradesh government is establishing a luxury tent city featuring more than 2,000 Swiss-style tents in Sector 20 (Arail) of the Mahakumbh Mela area. The project is an initiative of the Uttar Pradesh State Tourism Development Corporation Limited (UPSTDC) in collaboration with prominent partners like Aagaman, Kumbh Camp India, and others.
Constructed to world-class standards, these tents promise five-star hotel-like amenities. They will be available in four categories: Villa, Maharaja, Swiss Cottage, and Dormitory, with daily rates from Rs 1,500 to Rs 35,000. Additional fees apply for extra guests, barring dormitories. This ambitious undertaking targets 45 crore visitors from 75 countries.
Guided by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's vision, the tent city will be operational from January 1 to March 5, offering exclusive accommodations. Reservations can be made via the UPSTDC website or the Mahakumbh app. The expansive Villa Tents measure 900 square feet, while Super Deluxe and Deluxe Tents range between 250 and 580 square feet, providing modern conveniences from air conditioning to WiFi, all with picturesque riverbank views.
Each package includes information on yoga, cultural events, and significant religious and historical sites in Prayagraj and surrounding locales.
