Hey bikefreak, beautiful photos there. As my photos were missing huge crowd so your post complement this thread. A big thanks for that. I hope viewers will relish this thread more now.
BurningHeart indeed its experience of a lifetime.
Saket thanks for the appreciation. Except for shahi snan days the mela is not that crowded so you can try your hands on in future.
dZired thanks for the appreciation. For public, sangam tent colony has the best access to the mela & sangam area.
Denis thanks

I just do not want to start another thread on the same topic . . . no intentions of hijacking your thread

Just an aside, is it the photo of Nithyanada in one of the snaps that has been uploaded by bikefreak ( 7th from top ) ?? | Quote:

Thanks for sharing this with us!

The arrangements are quite good. I would also advise my friend who is visiting kumbh to stay in the Sangam Tent Colony.

Just thought to mention the poet in case someone gives me undue credit ![Big Grin](https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.png) Not many people are in touch of Hindi literature these days. I appreciate your knowledge. Quote:
