Badrinath Tour Packages

Situated amidst picturesque mountain ranges of Nar and Narayana in the Garhwal Hills, Badrinath is considered to be the most important of all the four Hindu pilgrimage centres, referred to as Char Dham. Located on the left bank of river Alaknanda, at a height of 3133 m above sea level, it is often termed as Tapobhumi - a land for meditation and penance as well as Bhubaikunth - the heaven on earth. According to Hindu mythology, Lord Vishnu performed an intense penance here. It is believed that His consort Goddess Lakshmi, on seeing the Lord doing penance in the open, transformed Herself into a badri tree to protect Him from harsh sun.

There are several other important pilgrimage sites en route, such as Deo Prayag, Rudraprayag and Karnaprayag. Besides being the holy abode of Lord Vishnu, it is a place of breathtaking natural beauty that never fails to mesmerise visitors. Badrinath also provides its visitors the perfect opportunity to indulge in numerous exciting adventure activities.
