Memories of the Punya Himalaya Darsan

Tungnath is the world's highest Shiva temple, sitting at an altitude of 3,680 m (12,073 ft) in the Garhwal Himalayas of Uttarakhand, India. As the highest of the five sacred Panch Kedar shrines, it requires a moderate 3.5 to 4 km trek from Chopta 

This is a famous temple dedicated to Lord Shiva, located deep in the mountains near the Mandakini River. It is considered one of the holiest places in Hinduism. Because of its high altitude and remote location, reaching it requires a challenging trek through beautiful, rugged mountain scenery.

Badarinath Temple, also known as Badarinarayana Temple, is a Hindu temple dedicated to Vishnu.. A unique feature here is the Tapt Kund, a natural hot water spring where many pilgrims bathe before visiting the temple to pray.  The temple is one of the 108 Divya Desams, sacred to Vaishnavism, where Vishnu is worshipped as Badrinath.
