Chardham yatra starts at Gangotri and Yamunotri as one cleanses himself of all
his sins by taking a bath in the holy rivers of Ganga and Yamuna. After taking
the holy bath the pilgrim then goes to Kedarnath where he worships Lord Shiva
the destroyer and asks for his forgiveness and at last visit Badrinath abode of
Lord Vishnu the originator in order to promise the Lord of a pure and sinless
life ahead. The yatra from Haridwar is a gradual climb and takes you through
the beautiful valleys, and lofty green mixed forest of Garhwal. The road also
passes from side to side some of the best known hill stations of India such as
Mussoorie, Chopta etc. The spiritual angle of Uttarakhand Chardham with the mixture
