One of the most sparkling pilgrimages at the Garhwal
ranges that glorify every pilgrim is the famous Kedarnath
Dham. Kedarnath temple is the supreme abode of Lord
Shiva and people believe that one can visit the pure image
of “Mahadev” in the form of “Jyotirlinga” (linga of light).
The most inaccessible site of Char Dham Tour, the
Kedarnath dham is elevated at the height of 3584m above
the sea level near the pious Mandakini River and is
flanked through the breathtaking snow capped peaks.
People from all over the world are not only flattered to find
the original form of Lord Shiva but can also mesmerize
themselves to discover the site of Shankaracharya’s
Samadhi while heeding through Kedarnath tour. Although
the actual Kedarnath temple is an impressive stone edifice
of unknown date.
