About Do Dham Yatra

Yamunotri

Yamunotri has its origins in ancient Hindu mythology. It is believed to be the abode of Goddess Yamuna, who descended to earth from the heavens to bless and purify the earth. The temple at Yamunotri, dedicated to the goddess, is a testimony to this rich mythological history and attracts pilgrims seeking her divine blessings.

Gangotri

Similarly, Gangotri holds immense significance as the source of the holy river Ganga. According to Hindu mythology, King Bhagirath undertook an intense penance to bring Ganga to Earth to cleanse the sins of his ancestors. It was at Gangotri that, in response to his prayers, the Ganga descended from the matted locks of Lord Shiva and flowed to earth. Dedicated to the goddess Ganga, Gangotri Temple serves as a sacred symbol of this divine event and continues to attract devotees who seek spiritual solace in its waters.
