Significance of Badrinath Dham Yatra

Badrinath is located 3,133 m above sea level in the Chamoli district of Uttarakhand. The temple is one most important shrines among the Char Dham Pilgrimage sites & also highly revered among the Panch Badri. It is mentioned in Bhagavata Purana that at Badrikashram (means Badrinath), the sages Nara and Narayana had been undergoing great penance since time immemorial for the welfare of all living entities. This religious town is situated between the Nar & Narayan Mountains on the bank of the river Alaknanda. There are a few legendary beliefs associated with this sacred place. When Goddess Ganges was descending on the earth, she split the entire water into 12 channels & one of them was Alaknanda. Another belief is that when Lord Vishnu meditated here then Goddess Lakshmi stood next to protect him from scorching sunlight & later she turned into a Badri herself called 'BADRI VISHAL' and lord (Nath) became the Badrinath. It is mentioned in Mahabharata that Pandavas ascended to heaven from the Swargarohini peak through Badrinath and the town of Mana, 4 km north of Badrinath.
