What Is Char Dham Yatra?
The Char Dham Yatra is a spiritual circuit of four major Hindu pilgrimage centers in the Indian state of Uttarakhand. The route begins at Yamunotri, a temple dedicated to Goddess Yamuna, and ends at Badrinath, where Lord Vishnu took his final avatar as Nara Narayan.
Yamunotri, situated at an altitude of 3,293 meters above sea level in the Garhwal district, is considered the gateway to the Char Dham. From here, pilgrims travel via Gangotri, Kedarnath, and finally reach Badrinath.
Gangotri, located at an altitude of 3100 m above sea level in the Greater Himalayan Region, is one of the primary sources of the River Ganges. Gangotri Temple is the highest dedicated temple to the Goddess Ganga.
Badrinath is located in the Chamoli district of Uttarakhand. It is one of the holiest pilgrim centers in India. Situated near the confluence of rivers Alaknanda and Mandakini, it is believed to house the abode of Lord Vishnu.
Kedarnath is located at an altitude of 3583 meters above sea level near Chorabairo glacier. The Kedarnath temple is located on the banks of the Mandakini river.
