The combination of these five temples is the destination that is at the top of the must-visit list. The destination is not the only reason behind people's attraction but the journey is what fascinates tourists. People often think that Uttrakhand is just about 4 dhams, Chardham itinerary and Chardham hotel booking but it is also about other things as well.

Everything You Need ToKnow About Char Dham Yatra

Hindu community members attach great religious significance to the Char Dham Yatra. One of India's most revered pilgrimage routes opens up at the same time each year for pilgrims to travel to the four most important Hindu shrines in Uttarakhand. Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath are the names of these four Himalayan shrines. From the auspicious day of Akshay Tritiya in the Chaitya month till Bhai Dooj, the Char Dham Yatra is open. The Hindu religion holds high regard for all of these places. Every Hindu can visit religious places at least once in their lifetime with the help of char dham tour packages to find enlightenment.

Importance Of Char Dham Yatra For Hindu Devotees

In Uttarakhand, Gangotri, Yamunotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath are the four main pilgrimage destinations that make up the Chardham Yatra. Whether they are coming from Dehradun, Haridwar, Rishikesh, or Delhi, they all take different routes. Any one of these locations is a great place to begin your spiritual journey because they are well connected to major Indian cities by aeroplanes and motorable roads. The Chardham Yatra, according to Hindu mythology, is fortunateand ought to be travelled in a clockwise direction from West to East.

Visitors must first go to Haridwar, the starting location of the Chardham Yatra, in order to arrive at the four holy shrines. By selecting the best char dham tour packages, they start their travel in Yamunotri, proceed to the famous Gangotri, then to Kedarnath Dham, and conclude it at Badrinath Dham. These four temples are visited in the sequence they are during the Chardham Yatra for a broad range of reasons, each of which has a special significance.

Significance of Yamunotri Dham Yatra

The initial of these is called Yamunotri Dham, and it is situated close to the Yamuna River's source. Yamraj had assured her on Bhai Dooj that anybody who bathes in the water would not be transported to Yamlok and would consequently attain forgiveness, considering that according to Hindu mythology, Yamuna is Yamraj's sister.

Significance of Gangotri Dham Yatra

The Ma Gangotri Temple, which honours the Goddess Ganga, is well-known for its location on the banks of the sacred Ganges River. The Gangotri Dham, the second stop on the Yatra, is located at a height of 3200 metres above sea level. The temple is located in Gomukh, the holy River Ganga's source. It is said that bathing in the Ganges River's sacred water cleanses one of all impurities. According to mythology, King Bhagirath spent much time here in meditation before Ganga suddenly emerged. The rock where he is supposed to have meditated is displayed in the temple. You can visit this religious place by booking char dham tour packages.

Importance of Kedarnath Dham

Among the 12 jyotirlingas can be seen in the Kedarnath Baba shrine, which is well known for it. The holy site is devoted to Lord Shiva and is a popular destination for those who follow him and seek his blessings. Among the most important shrines in the nation is Kedarnath Temple, which is extremely well known. The PanchKedar pilgrimage of India includes the temples of Kedarnath, Kalpeshwar, Tungnath, Madmaheshwar, and Rudranath. This is encircled by the hypnotic snow-capped mountains that house Mount Kailash. Adi Shankaracharya is credited with constructing the fabled temple at Kedarnath in 800 AD.

Significance of Badrinath Dham

With the assistance of char dham tour packages, the Badrinath Temple, the most famous of the four temples, is the final to be visited throughout the yatra.The temple, which honours Lord Vishnu, is situated beside the Alakananda River. Additionally, Adi Shankaracharya is thought to have achieved enlightenment there.It is assumed that the Badrinath received its name from the numerous "berries" that can be found there. In Sanskrit, these berries are known as "Badri." The King of Gharwal had a statue of Lord Badrinarayan carved of Saligram stone removed from the Alaknanda River and placed in the current Badrinath temple.It belongs to Lord Vishnu's 108 DivyaDesams. A black stone Vishnu statue is worshipped in the temple.

Best Time ToTravel For Char Dham

Only half of the year, from April or May to October or November, is dedicated to visiting all four of the Char Dham temples: Yamunotri, Gangotri, Badrinath, and Kedarnath.As the Char Dham experiences summers, the months of April, May, and the early half of June offer nice weather. As June's latter half, July, and August are prone to rains that may cause frequent landslides in the Char Dham, the rainy months are not the best time to come there.

Due to their high altitudes and severe winter snowfall, Char Dham's temples must be closed throughout the winter months. Therefore, April, May, October, and November are the only months that are perfect for visiting Char Dham with char dham tour packages. Additionally, the deity of Kedarnath is moved to the Omkareshwar Temple in Ukhimath during the winter when the holy gates of Kedarnath Temple are closed.

Conclusion

For those looking to find enlightenment, the Char Dham Yatra is regarded as a must-do pilgrimage. The name "Char Dham," according to Hindu mythology, was first used by the ancient Hindu philosopher Shri Adi Shankaracharya. Additionally, it is assumed that one must make this journey at least once in their lifetime. These four temples are located in an area renowned for their alluring mountains covered in a deep blanket of snow that you can easily explore with Char Dham tour packages.
