Akshayavat
Akshayavat, also known as the Eternal Banyan Tree, is a sacred fig tree located within the Allahabad Fort in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh. According to Hindu mythology, the tree is believed to be immortal and has been living from time immemorial. The tree is revered as the umbrella spread over the sacred city of Prayagraj, as per the Padma Purana. It stands on the banks of the Yamuna River, right next to the Triveni Sangam, where the Ganges, Yamuna, and Saraswati rivers meet.
The Akshayavat tree holds significant religious importance and is associated with various legends and myths. It is believed that Lord Brahma performed a huge yajna (sacrifice) under this tree to save the Earth, with Lord Vishnu as the host and Lord Shiva as the presiding deity. The tree is also mentioned in the Valmiki Ramayana, where Lord Rama and Sita are said to have visited the tree during their exile.
