People have traditionally relied on travelling to holy pilgrimage sites to strengthen their faith. And the Do Dhaam Yatra is no exception to this belief! It is a subset of the popular Char Dham Yatra in Uttarakhand. The Do Dham Yatra includes a trip to Badrinath and Kedarnath, two of Hinduism’s holiest sites. It is believed that participating in a Do Dham Yatra may atone for all of the sins you have committed and put you on the road to salvation. Continue reading to see what you can do at these sacred sites and why they are among the most cherished Hindu pilgrimages.

Kedarnath: Kedarnath is particularly well-liked by the populace because it is believed to be the residence of Lord Shiva and one of India’s twelve Jyotirlingas. The temple of Kedarnath is situated in the Garhwal Himalayan range next to the Mandakini River, surrounded by snow-capped peaks and breathtaking scenery. Attending the Rudrabhishek Puja is undoubtedly on every devotee’s yatra list, in addition to enjoying the calm environment and breathtaking natural beauty. In May, the Kedarnath Temple’s doors are opened to pilgrims, and they remain locked until Diwali.

Badrinath: Badrinath is a must-visit pilgrimage destination for those who practise Hinduism because it is one of the four Dhams that Shankaracharya created. Between the stunning Narayan and Nar mountain ranges, you’ll find Badrinath Dham. One cannot deem the Badrinath Yatra complete until they have bathed in the renowned Tapt Kund. Every year in April or May, the Badrinath Temple welcomes worshippers and remains open for roughly six months.

Dham Yatra Itinerary:

The Do Dham Yatra may be completed in 6-7 days, and the following are some activities you can do each day of your vacation:

Day 1: Travelling from Mumbai to Uttarakhand will take up the majority of this day. When you get to Haridwar, you can take a scenic drive to your accommodation, settle in, and unwind for the day.

Day 2: On this day, your journey can officially begin. Visit Kedarnath early in the morning. You have to take the shuttle service to travel from Sonprayag to Gaurikund before beginning your journey. It is roughly 18 kilometres away. After darshan, you can take the day off.

Day 3: On the third day, you get to go to GarbhaGraha and see the bull’s hump. At 4 am, the darshan begins, and when it is over, you can journey back to your hotel for a comfortable night’s stay. Make sure you eat a healthy meal because this day may be hectic.

Day 4: You can travel to Badrinath on this day of your Do Dham Yatra through Chopta, which has beautiful meadows. Once you get to Badrinath, you can settle into the hotel and go straight to the Badrinath darshan.

Day 5: After returning to the temple for darshan, you can now drive to Mana, the last Indian village. Drive to Srinagar next for a night’s stay so you can see Vishnu Prayag, Nandaprayag, Karnaprayag, and Rudraprayag en route.

Day 6: On this day, you can finally drive to Haridwar via Devprayag and Rishikesh. The journey might be concluded with the Haridwar evening aarti.

It is widely believed that those who participate in the Do Dhaam Yatra are on the road to liberation. So, if you’re prepared to seek divine blessings and visit the heavenly temples in Uttarakhand, our thoughtfully created Do Dham tour packages may help you accomplish it effortlessly.

Whether you realise it or not, vacations are a crucial aspect of life. And if you enjoy spending time on peaceful hill stations during your travels, Himachal Pradesh has the perfect destination for you. Shimla and Manali, two of Himachal’s most popular tourist destinations, are overflowing with the magnificence of nature. But if you’ve been having trouble organising your Shimla Manali tour, this blog is just what you need. Here are some helpful tips and well-known locations that you really must see when in Shimla and Kullu Manali.

The Shimla Manali Tour Itinerary for 7 Days and 6 Nights:

Day 1: Take a flight to cut down on the amount of time it takes to get from Mumbai to Delhi or Chandigarh. You can take a bus from Chandigarh airport to Shimla, which would take you around 3–4 hours. You can also reserve a private cab, although bus frequencies are reasonable. One practical course of action might be to take a bus to Kalka, where you could then get on the renowned Toy Train to Shimla. On the first day of your Shimla- Kullu Manali tour, you will spend the majority of your time travelling. However, you can check into your hotel, relax for a while, and get used to Shimla’s climate.

Day 2 and 3: There are many sights to view in Shimla on days 2 and 3, but the most well-known ones include Mall Road, Scandal Point, Christ Church, the Shimla State Museum, and Jakhu Hill. Chail, Kufri, Mashobra, and Narkanda are a few of the surrounding hill stations that are exceedingly picturesque as well. You can stroll along The Ridge, in the vicinity of Jhaku Hill, and besides the Observatory. It is here that the city’s fairs, festivals, and events take place. There are various colonial-style structures, including a church, a library, and a statue of Mahatma Gandhi, that draw tourists to this part of the city.

Day 4: As you depart for Manali on Day 4, you can expect another enjoyable ride. The trip from Shimla to Manali will take some time, but it will be delightful. This hill station is ideal for adventures in the outdoors. Check into the hotel upon arrival, then take some time to unwind. You can then leave and mingle with the locals and tourists. You can purchase mementoes for your loved ones.

Day 5: Local sightseeing and exploring Manali will take up the majority of your day of your Kullu Manali tour. Hadimba Temple, Vashist Hot Springs, Manu Maharishi Temple, Nehru Kund, the Museum of Himachal Culture and Folk Art, Gauri Shankar Temple, Nicholas Roerich Art Gallery, and others are just a few of the locations you can visit.

Day 6: You can travel to Rohtang Pass on day 6 and then descend into Lahaul Valley from the opposite side. In Keylong, there are several hotels where you can stay the night. Alternatively, you might travel 25 more kilometres to Jispa and stay at one of the campgrounds there. Without a doubt, this will be the most beautiful drive you’ve ever taken. The trip’s final day will likely be today. Therefore, you might as well relax while you take in the beauty of this beautiful hill station. Alternatively, you could extend your journey by one day and spend the extra day travelling to Kasol in the Parvati Valley.

Day 7: On this day, you will be returning home from a memorable vacation with your baggage packed with souvenirs.

Himachal Pradesh’s stunning hill stations enjoy pleasant weather all year. To minimise the difficulty, just be sure to avoid travelling there during the monsoon. We hope that our blog will at the very least serve as a starting point for you to organise an unforgettable trip to Shimla and Manali. Vacations can start as a great idea and then turn into a hassle to plan.
