Kedarnath: The Sacred Jyotirlinga
Kedarnath, home to one of the twelve Jyotirlingas of Lord Shiva, is situated at an altitude of 3,583 meters in the Rudraprayag district. Surrounded by snow-capped peaks, this revered temple has a mystical aura that attracts thousands of devotees every year.
The temple, originally built by the Pandavas and later reconstructed by Adi Shankaracharya, stands as a symbol of devotion and resilience. Pilgrims undertake a 16 km trek from Gaurikund to seek the blessings of Lord Kedarnath.
Badrinath: The Land of Lord Vishnu
Nestled in the lap of the Nar-Narayan Parvat, with the towering Neelkanth Peak (6,597 meters) in the background, Badrinath is one of the most significant Vaishnavite temples dedicated to Lord Vishnu.
Badrinath is believed to be the sacred place where Lord Vishnu meditated under the Badri tree. Devotees take a holy dip in the Tapt Kund, a natural hot water spring, before offering prayers at the temple.
