A large 15,000 square-foot 3D map will depict iconic sites such as Ayodhya, Kashi, Mathura, Prayagraj, Kushinagar, Sarnath, and Naimisharanya, offering detailed insights into their significance.

Tourism and Culture Minister Jaiveer Singh said here on Sunday that Uttar Pradesh’s uniqueness lies in its religious, spiritual, and natural tourism destinations, along with its cuisine, handicrafts, music, and dance forms. With an estimated 40 crore devotees expected to attend Mahakumbh 2025, the pavilion aims to acquaint visitors with the state’s rich heritage and cultural legacy.

The pavilion will feature 75 stalls dedicated to the state’s One District One Product (ODOP) scheme, showcasing unique products from each district. Three stages will host cultural programmes, and over 20 food stalls will serve local and regional delicacies from across the country. Special selfie points will also be set up across the pavilion to enhance the visitor experience.

The Tourism and Culture Minister further highlighted that this year’s Mahakumbh will stand apart from traditional editions. Advanced technology will be used to monitor the fairgrounds and ensure top-notch security and cleanliness.
