A typical Char Dham Yatra package starts from Haridwar or Rishikesh, two prominent spiritual gateways in Uttarakhand. From there, pilgrims are taken to Yamunotri, the source of the Yamuna River, followed by Gangotri, the origin of the sacred Ganges River. The journey continues to Kedarnath, home to one of the twelve Jyotirlingas dedicated to Lord Shiva, and concludes at Badrinath, the abode of Lord Vishnu.
