The Four Holy Shrines of Char Dham:

Yamunotri (Yamunotri Temple)
The first stop on the Char Dham Yatra is Yamunotri, dedicated to the Yamuna River, one of the most important rivers in Hindu mythology. Situated in the Uttarkashi district of Uttarakhand, the temple is set amidst snow-capped mountains and is the origin of the Yamuna river. Pilgrims often take a holy dip in the Surya Kund hot springs, located near the temple, before paying their respects to the deity.
Best Time to Visit: April to June and September to November.
Gangotri (Gangotri Temple)
The next sacred destination is Gangotri, the origin of the River Ganga, and an iconic spot for spiritual seekers.

The pilgrimage to Gangotri involves a peaceful journey, offering stunning views of the Himalayas.
Best Time to Visit: April to June and September to November.
Kedarnath (Kedarnath Temple)
One of the most significant temples in India, Kedarnath is dedicated to Lord Shiva and is located at an altitude of 3,583 meters.

Reaching Kedarnath is a challenge, but the spiritual experience at the temple makes the effort worthwhile.
