Pilgrimage Tours
Badrinath Yatra
Situated in the lap of Nar-Narayan Parvat, with the towering Neelkanth
peak (6,597mts.) in the background, Badrinath is one of the most revered
Hindu shrines of India. It has been said that "there were many sacred
spots of pilgrimage in the heaven, earth and the other world but neither
is there any equal to Badrinath nor shall there be one." It is believed
that to revive the lost prestige of Hinduism and to unite the country
in one bond, Adi Guru Sri Shankaracharya built four pilgrimage centres
in four corners of India. Among them were Badrikashram in the north, Rameshwaram
in the south, Dwarkapuri in the west and Jagannath Puri in the east. Badrinath
situated at an elevation of 3,133 mts. is considered to be amongst the
most pious.
