About the Chardham Yatra
The Chardham Yatra is held every year and holds deep religious importance for the Hindus. The word “Chardham” is derived from two Hindi words- ‘Char’ meaning four, and ‘Dham’ meaning religious places. So the name Chardham Yatra literally means religious pilgrimage to the four Hindu shrines- the Yamunotri, the Gangotri, the Kedarnath and the Badrinath.
