Ride To The Badrinath Temple: Things To Keep In Mind

As per the Hindu belief system, char dham yatra holds great significance. And the famous Badrinath Temple, located by the Alaknanda River, is one of them. Named after Lord Vishnu. The temple welcomes you with its mystical architecture and the fascinating charm of the Neelkanth Peak at the backdrop. As the place remains covered with snow in winter, visiting from May to June and September to October will give you the best experience.
