🇮🇳 UttarakhandDevbhoomi
Namaskar

Uttarakhand, known as Devbhoomi (Land of Gods), is one of India’s most sacred and scenic states. It is home to the holy Char Dham — Kedarnath, Badrinath, Gangotri, and Yamunotri — making it a major pilgrimage destination. Uttarakhand also holds the sacred Kedarnath Jyotirlinga, the revered Panch Kedar temples — Kedarnath, Tungnath, Rudranath, Madhyamaheshwar, and Kalpeshwar, and the holy Panch Prayag — Vishnuprayag, Nandaprayag, Karnaprayag, Rudraprayag, and Devprayag, where the rivers meet and the Ganga takes form.

Beyond spirituality, Uttarakhand offers beautiful hill towns like Nainital, Mussoorie, Auli, Almora, and Ranikhet, along with adventure activities such as trekking, river rafting in Rishikesh, and wildlife safaris in Jim Corbett National Park. Surrounded by the Himalayas and blessed with peaceful nature, Uttarakhand offers a soulful travel experience for pilgrims, explorers, and nature lovers alike.
