| About Uttarkashi Tourism |
|
This town, and district by the same name, is in the Garhwal Himalayas and best-known for being the base of the Gangotri and Yamunotri
pilgrimages. Also known as Devbhumi or the land of the gods, this
region has a stunning beauty untouched by human presence, making it
seem truly mystical or divine. To the east is Chamoli district, while
to the north lie Himachal Pradesh and Tibet. The
town has an ancient religious heritage and as the name suggests is
considered to be the Kashi of the north interestingly both the Kashis
are on the banks of the holy Ganga (known as Bhagirathi here in the north). Again both the Kashis have a Manikarnika ghat
with temples dedicated to Lord Shiva. Many great sages, saints and
philosophers have lived and meditated in this holy destination adding
to its sanctity.
