Situated in the lap of Nar-Narayan Par vat, with the towering Neelkanth peak (6,597mt) in the background, Badrinath is one of the most revered Hindu Shrines of India.

It has been said that “there were many sacred spots of pilgrimage in the heaven, earth and The other world but neither is there any equal to Badrinath nor shall there be one.”

It is believed that to revive the lost prestige of Hinduism and to unite the country in one bond, Adi Guru Sri Shankaracharya built four pilgrimage centers in Four Corners of India. Among them were Badrikashram in the north, Rameshwaram in the south, dwarkapuri in the west and Jagannath Puri in the east.

Badrinath is situated at an elevation of 3,133mt is considered to be amongst the most pious.
