Yamunotri temple

More than 12 lakh devotees have visited the Char Dham shrines in Uttarakhand within 25 days of the pilgrimage beginning on April 19.

Uttarakhand's winter Char Dham Yatra is off to a strong start, as pilgrims flock to the winter seats of the four sacred shrines.

The Char Dham Yatra commenced on Friday, coinciding with the auspicious occasion of Akshaya Tritiya, with the opening of the doors of Yamunotri, Kedarnath, and Gangotri temples in the Garhwal Himalayas.
