The Ambubachi Mela 2026 was held at the Kamakhya Temple in Assam.
It is a monsoon festival associated with the annual spiritual rest of Maa Kamakhya. The festival is also linked with the Sun's transition from the zodiac sign of Gemini to Cancer, which carries astrological significance. The mela draws large numbers of devotees and pilgrims to the temple every year and is one of the major religious events of Northeast India.
