Devprayag(देवप्रयाग)

Devprayag literally meaning the confluence of the gods is an amazing underrated place in Uttarakhand.

Here the rivers Bhagirathi(local name for Ganga before the two rivers merge) and Alaknanda merge.While the Bhagirathi is swift and fast and Alaknanda is slow and calm.



The city of Devprayag in itself is really interesting in its design ,located on top of  a mountain slope.It has steep narrow pedestrian pathways and lots of shops, and barbers because its holy to cut hair near the confluence.

It also has loads of Mandirs(temples) but the most interesting part apart from the religious significance is the way it looks and the Gully Cricket.

Some pictures of the village and nearby interesting things-




This blog is the introduction to my whole trip and about the place I went there will be more blogs about this place.

What's up guys.I haven't written in a long time as I have been busy with tests more like  Netflix😅 to be honest.

So Mohenjo-daro as we know is located in Pakistan very close to Iran where Persian is spoken even Pakistan's language Urdu is somewhat similar to Persian. It is important to note in history all languages and script mostly evolve from other languages and scripts. It is written from right to left, also paleo - Hebrew numerals are just like roman numerals. So first part of the inscription is 1.The h like symbol is actually h 😂 I looked up many related  scripts  and their evolutions.The second symbol(from the right)looks exactly like kaph in paleo hebrew so it will  be pronounced 'k'. The fish symbol is pronounced meen and is already researched by other historians. Hakmeen in Persian means king And the first symbol which
