History & Legend
The Chardham Yatra was formally organized in the 8th century by the great Hindu philosopher and saint Adi Shankaracharya, who revived these sacred sites to unify Hindu spiritual practices across India.
Kedarnath is believed to have been established by the Pandavas during the Mahabharata period, while Badrinath finds mention in ancient Vedas and Puranas. Gangotri marks the sacred place where Goddess Ganga descended to Earth, and Yamunotri is dedicated to Goddess Yamuna, the sister of Yama, the god of death.
