Badrinath is one of the most revered pilgrimage destinations in India and forms an essential part of the Char Dham Yatra. Nestled in the lap of the Garhwal Himalayas in Uttarakhand at an altitude of 3,300 meters, Badrinath is dedicated to Lord Vishnu, worshipped here as Badri Narayan.
The centerpiece of this holy town is the Badrinath Temple, an ancient shrine believed to have been established by Adi Shankaracharya in the 8th century. Adorned with a golden roof and towering gateway, the temple is located on the banks of the Alaknanda River and remains open only for six months due to heavy snowfall in winter.
