About Char Dham of Uttarakhand:
Char Dham of Uttarakhand refers to the four most sacred Hindu pilgrimage shrines located in the Garhwal Himalayas of Uttarakhand, India. These include Kedarnath, Badrinath, Gangotri, and Yamunotri, situated at high altitudes amid snow-clad peaks and pristine natural surroundings. The Char Dham Yatra is considered one of the most important spiritual journeys in Hinduism and is traditionally undertaken between April/May and October/November, depending on weather conditions.
Each shrine holds deep religious significance. Kedarnath, located near the Mandakini River, is dedicated to Lord Shiva and is one of the twelve Jyotirlingas. Badrinath, set along the banks of the Alaknanda River, is devoted to Lord Vishnu and is part of both the Char Dham and Chota Char Dham circuits. Gangotri marks the origin of the holy River Ganga, while Yamunotri is the source of the River Yamuna, both rivers being central to Hindu beliefs and rituals.
Due to extreme climatic conditions, heavy snowfall, and difficult terrain, the Char Dham region remains accessible only for a limited period each year. Pilgrims travel through rugged mountain routes to reach these sacred sites. Undertaking the Char Dham Yatra is believed to purify the soul, wash away sins, and guide devotees toward spiritual peace and liberation (moksha).
