Description

Ujjain is a city in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh, located on the banks of the Shipra River. It is one of the seven Moksha-puris, or sacred cities in Hinduism, known for its historical and religious significance. Ujjain is home to the famous Mahakaleshwar Temple, one of the twelve Jyotirlingas in India, which attracts numerous pilgrims and tourists each year.

The city has a rich cultural heritage, with evidence of human settlements dating back to ancient times. Ujjain was historically known as Avantika and served as an important center for trade, education, and astronomy during the ancient and medieval periods. It was also the capital of the ancient kingdom of Avanti and played a significant role in the governance of the region.

Ujjain is renowned for the Kumbh Mela festival, one of the largest religious gatherings in the world, held every twelve years. During this festival, millions of devotees come to bathe in the sacred waters of the Shipra River, believed to cleanse them of sins. The city is also known for its astrological significance, as the position of planets is said to have been calculated here since ancient times.
