India is a country that has deep relation
with spirituality and devoutness. It is where a slew of pilgrimage destinations
witness masses of devotees from far and wide. The mighty Himalaya has been
associated with an affluent history as well as religious backdrops. Almost
every corner of this grand mountain range has a pilgrimage site that, according
of Hindu mythology, is very sacred. This blog has been penned down to take you
to a virtual tour to the Himalaya’s most popular pilgrimage sites.
Before anything else, we would give the
revered Amarnath Cave a mention. Situated amidst snowy Himalaya, this ancient
cave is where Lord Shiva resided with his consort Parvati. He narrated the
secret of immortality at this secluded place. It is therefore believed that if
someone visits the cave and see the iced shiva lingam, then he will get salvation.
Amarnath Yatra is quite hard, as the devotees have to trek through arduous
Himalayan path where weather is not favourable either. But now a pilgrim can
avail Amarnath
yatra package and can enjoy the journey without hassle.
Shri Veshno Devi temple near Katra is
another popular religious destination in Himalaya. This temple is also built on
a natural cave, where Goddess Durga is worshiped in form of three natural
pindis. In order to reach the temple, pilgrims have to trek on feet a 13km long
uphill way from Katra. The chardham yatra destinations: Kedarnath, Badrinath,
Gangotari and Yamunotari are situated in the foothills of Himalaya in Indian
state of Utterakhand. And how can one forget the Haridwar and Rishikesh, where
thousands of devotees flock to take a holy dip in River Ganga.
Apart from that, Himalaya is famous for its
religious tour to monasteries in Leh Ladah and Sikkim. Since the Himalayan
pilgrimage tours are gaining huge popularity, most of travel companies arrange
comfy travel to these destinations. Online booking through a reliable travel
agent is advised! You can also book Kashmir
