| The
source of two rivers, Gangotri and Yamunotri are devoted to
the female deities- Ganga and Yamuna. They both along with the
Badrinath and Kedarnath from the Chardham of the U.P.Hills,
the four most hallowed shrines in the Grahwal Himalayas. For
centuries, saints and pilgrims have walked these in ancient
Hindu scriptures as Kedarnath. It is here that the glaciers
melt to form the sacred…Ganga and Yamuna Rivers. |
 |
 |
| Today,
a network of motorable roads has made the shrines highly accessible.
Yet for those seeking that exalting experience hardy trails
remain in the ancient sanctuaries of faith. Traditionally, the
Yatra is done from left to right first Yamunotri, and then Gangotri,
Kedarnath and Badrinath in that order. |
