In the Hindu religion, it is believed that one must visit the Char Dham Tour once in a lifetime. According to Hindu Dharma, the ultimate peace and goal of life is to surrender to God, and a Char dham yatra package is the best way to achieve that goal. You can easily plan your Char Dham Yatra Package with the guidance of Global Royal Holiday. It is a journey that you never want to miss in your life.

Do you know why it is called Chardham? Let us make you understand about it. It is not like other pilgrimages, according to Vedic Sanatan Dharma, which is now known as Hindu Dharma. All four Dham located in Uttarakhand are the house of our God and Goddess. Dham means where our God lives, and this Chardham trip is also known as Chhota Chardham Yatra. Badi Char Dham Yatra Package includes all directions for Dham, including Badrinath, Dwarka, Jagannath Puri, and Rameswaram, so please don’t be confused.
These sacred pilgrimage places are situated in the Garhwal area of Uttarakhand. The Chhota Chardham is the yatra of Kedarnath, Badrinath, Gangotri and Yamunotri.

Chardham Yatra: A Synopsys
As we have already stated, the Chhota Chardham Yatra comprises four temple destinations: Kedarnath, Badrinath, Gangotri, and Yamunotri. If you desire to book a Char Dham Yatra Family Package, then no platform is better than Global Royal Holidays.
Kedarnath
Kedarnath is a Hindu temple of great significance. It is among 12 Jyotirlingas of Lord Shiva. It is located near Chorabaori Glacier, from where the Mandakini River starts. Snow-covered hills, apple orchards, and hilly slopes are some of the attractions of Kedarnath.
Badrinath
Badrinath temple is devoted to Lord Vishnu, who is considered an operator among all Three Gods, including Lord Shiva and Brahma. It has an amazing view with triangle-shaped temples. Moreover, snow-covered Nilkantha hills are also there. Guru Adi Shankaracharya founded this divine temple in the 8th century.
Gangotri
The Gangotri Pilgrimage temple is among the most sacred religious structures in India. The River Ganga originates from here. According to Hindu philosophy, the stone on the place is considered a headrest to protect the earth from chaos the Ganges could have brought as they dropped out of Lord Shiva’s tangled tresses in heaven.
Yamunotri
The formation of the Yamunotri shrine happened in the 19th century, and its proximity to the Yamuna River is why it has been considered the source of the divine Yamuna River. It is believed that people come here to wash their sins in the rivers Yamuna and Ganga.
The Ideal Time to Visit Chardham
Whether you opt for a Char Dham tour package from Haridwar or Delhi, visiting here from April to the first week of June is suggested. The temperature in these months is tolerable and delicate. You can easily explore different temples without experiencing chilly waves. We recommend that every tourist not plan Chardham Yatra during the monsoon season, from the last week of June to September. If you want to prepare for this pilgrimage, October is also a good month.
