Uttrakhand, the holy place known for its enchanting beauty and soulful vibe, also treasures the homes of lord Shiva and Vishnu - Kedarnath and Badrinath. The sun-kissed icy mountain peaks enchant people to witness this mesmerizing scenery. Then the sacred rivers of Yamunotri and Gangotri humbles them with their cold river and warm aura.
Every hindu devotee dreams of entering this heaven even once in a lifetime. Then why not plan this pilgrimage with your family and friends? But before planning your Char Dham Yatra 2024, look out for the best travel options this year. So, get right into the details!
It is believed that the person who completes the whole Char Dham Yatra will attain moksha and liberate his soul from the repeating cycle of birth and death. So, before setting up on this spiritual voyage of Char Dham Yatra, make sure you know each dham or pilgrimage.
The root source of Yamuna River, Yamunotri leads your first step towards Char Dham Yatra. Garhwal Mountains are home to this river goddess. You will find shared taxis or private cars at Haridwar to reach here.
Next step is to meet our Holy river goddess - Ganga, which comes from Gangotri river. Most worshipped river goddess, Ganga is known for her Purity. Treks to taxis, either shared or private, you will be able to reach this place conveniently.
In a clockwise direction, we move our feets and hearts to the next destination - Kedarnath, where the heart of lord Shiva and Nandi lies. The way to reach there is either by foot or helicopter in the season of summer.
One of the Char Dhams, Badrinath is sacred for Vishnu devotees. Every year, pilgrims step in Garhwal himalayan region, where lies the heart of Lord Vishnu. The best way to reach here is by getting on public buses.
