Gangotri and Yamunotri are the originating places of two rivers Ganga and Yamuna respectively. Thus, these two destinations hold a high place in Hinduism. As per Hindu Mythology, Gangotri is a place where King Bhagirath performed penance after which River Ganga came down on the earth. Yamunotri is the place where pilgrims seek the blessings of Yamuna, who is the sister of Yama, the God of death.

Nestled high in the Garhwal Himalayas, both shrines offer a perfect blend of spiritual blessings and breathtaking natural beauty.
