About This Yatra
CharDham Yatra is one of the most popular pilgrimages where millions of devotees aspire to go once in their lifetime to eliminate all their sins by the blessings of the Lord. This Yatra includes 4 sacred destinations â Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath and Badrinath â all situated in the majestic Himalayas of Uttarakhand.
Each of these destinations is devoted to a specific deity: Kedarnath is devoted to Lord Shiva, Badrinath to Lord Vishnu, and Gangotri and Yamunotri refer to the sacred rivers Ganga and Yamuna respectively. The Chardham Yatra is believed to cleanse one's sins and lead to liberation (moksha).
Places to Visit
Yamunotri Dham
The first stop of the pilgrimage, where River Yamuna takes birth. Situated in Uttarkashi district, the shrine was built in 1839 by the king of Tehri. The Surya Kund hot water spring near the temple is famous â devotees boil rice and potatoes in the kund and accept it as Prasad.
Gangotri Dham
Dedicated to Goddess Ganga, who descended to earth to absolve the sins of humankind. The river originates at Gaumukh from the Gangotri glacier, 18 km from the town. The original temple was built by Amar Singh Thapa, a Gurkha general, in the early 19th century.
Kedarnath Dham
The most remote pilgrimage spot in the yatra, situated in Rudraprayag district. Originally built by the Pandavas, the present grey stone structure was constructed by Adi Shankaracharya in the 8th century. Its imposing design has survived centuries in harsh Himalayan terrain.
Badrinath Dham
One of the most holy places in Hinduism and a 108 Divya Desam. Adi Shankaracharya found the idol of Lord Badri in the Alaknanda River and enshrined it. Sandwiched between Nar and Narayan peaks with the glorious Neelkanth peak in the background, its beauty is breathtaking.
