About Chardham Yatra

The Chardham Yatra is one of India's most sacred pilgrimage circuits, covering four holy shrines in the Garhwal Himalayas of Uttarakhand: Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath. This spiritual journey is believed to wash away sins and open the path to moksha (liberation).

According to Hindu scriptures, the great saint Adi Shankaracharya established the Chardham in the 8th century to revive Hinduism. The yatra typically begins from west to east - starting at Yamunotri, then Gangotri, Kedarnath, and finally Badrinath.

The temples remain open for about six months each year (April/May to October/November), closing during winter when the deities are believed to retreat to lower altitudes.
