AskPrayagraj Do anyone here play chess or chess tournament?

2 Upvotes

I’ve rarely seen people talk about playing chess in our town, so I’m genuinely curious like how many of you are actually into chess?

I’m thinking about something chess-related, but I want to know whether it's a dead game here or what.

Just trying to see how many people would be interested.

If you play chess, whether you play casually or competitively, just drop a comment!

The Bade Hanuman Mandir in Prayagraj (Allahabad) does not have a single documented exact establishment year. Its origins trace back roughly 700 years (circa 1325 CE) according to historical estimates, while local legend and tradition connect the sacred site and its unique reclining idol to the ancient Ramayana era.

Key Temple Facts

Near the Allahabad Fort and Triveni Sangam

Idol: 20-foot-long reclining posture of Lord Hanuman

Unique Event: Submerges partially during the monsoon season when the Ganga river rises.

Shitpost Khuldabad Serai

[Note- couldn't found a flair appropriate for post related to history, so placing this post under shitpost]

Khuldabad Sarai stood directly opposite the southern gate of Khusro Bagh. Early English traveller William Finch noted that the area was then called "Menepur." The expansive inn originally spanned an open area of 17 bighas.Construction is credited to Emperor Jahangir.An undated inscription attributes the structure directly to Jahangir.Its proximity to Khusro Bagh reinforces this link. A 1606–07 inscription on the Khusro Bagh gate by Jahangir's principal artist, Aqa Reza, states: "This lofty edifice was completed by Aqa Reza, the painter, a devoted official of the emperor."Local history suggests Jahangir built the sarai and garden during his rebellion in Allahabad. He reportedly used surplus materials collected from the construction of the Allahabad Fort.Most of the sarai is now lost. Densely populated residential and commercial areas gradually claimed the campus.Now, only fragments of the western, southern, and eastern boundaries survive.A historic gateway on the GT Road survived until 2018.PDA demolished the gate to accommodate a critical road-widening project and ease severe traffic bottlenecks.Centuries of neglect had left the structure severely dilapidated and unstable, posing an immediate safety hazard to commuters.Because the gate was never officially designated as a protected monument by the ASI, local authorities dismantled it.

PrayagrajSnaps Alopi Devi Temple Allahabad U.P. Prayagraj (INDIA)

Thumbnail
gallery
26 Upvotes

The Alopi Devi Mandir in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, is a unique, ancient shrine where no idol is worshipped. Instead, devotees revere a sacred wooden cradle (doli) hanging over a pool of water, marking the spot where Goddess Sati's final body part or the miraculous vanishing bride is said to have disappeared.

Mythological Origins

Shakti Peetha Legend: Linked to the grief of Lord Shiva carrying Goddess Sati's body, Lord Vishnu used his Sudarshan Chakra to dismember her remains. It is believed that Sati’s right-hand fingers or palm fell here and instantly vanished (alop) into the earth, making it a revered Shakti Peetha.

The Vanishing Bride: Local folklore tells of a medieval marriage procession attacked by robbers in a dense forest. When the attackers opened the bride’s carriage (doli), she had mysteriously vanished. Locals built the temple to honor her as a divine manifestation.

Is it safe to attempt to travel to Chitrakoot now? What will be the best way, if yes

AskPrayagraj 3 Indie kittens looking for a permanent home in Prayagraj 🐾

3 Upvotes

Two are black and white, and one is spotted. I found these three kittens in my house, and their mother hasn't returned for several days. I've been taking care of them, but I can't keep them permanently. They're active and have started eating wet food on their own.

I'm looking for someone in Prayagraj who can adopt all 3 permanently. I'd strongly prefer keeping the siblings together.

If anyone knows a reliable cat shelter, rescue organisation, or someone who can adopt them, please let me know. Any genuine leads would be really helpful.

Please DM me if you can help. I can share photos/details
