    (A RELIGIOUS HIGH AMONG MAJESTIC


    PEAKS)
    पुराण​:
    Kedarnath is one among the holiest pilgrim centres in northern India, and is located in amongst the scenic locales of
    the Gharwal region in the state of Uttarakhand, near the Mandakini river.

    Renowned for the ancient temple dedicated to Lord Shiva, the Kedarnath pilgrimage offers the joy for the devout
    and a serene place.
    It is closely associated with the mighty Pandavas, a beautiful legend of its own and is also known as 'temple of the
    lord of the field'.

    It says that in order to evade from the Pandavas, Lord Shiva made himself hidden in the form of a bull here at
    Kedarnath, and when noticed by the Pandavas,
    the lord drudge himself in to the earth leaving the hump on the surface.
    श्लोक:

    महाद्रिपार्श्वे च तटे रमन्तं सम्पूज्यमानं सततं मुनीन्द्रैः।


    सुरासुरैर्यक्षमहोरगाद्यै: के दारमीशं शिवमेकमीडे ॥
    अर्थ:
    I praise Lord Kedarnath, who resides in the holy
    Kedarkhand,
    situated on the banks of Mandakini, near the
    mountain range Himalayas,
    and is always worshiped by the sages, the deities-
    asuras, yakshas and serpents alike
    Kedarnath temple was built by five Pandava brothers of
    Mahabharata around 5,000 BC and the present temple was
    established by the great guru Adi ShankarAcharya,
    who restored the temple to its former glory in the 8th century A.D.
    It is one among the 12 jyotirlingas in India (Jyotirlinga is a
    devotional representation of Lord Shiva).
    The undulating landscapes of this snowy region offer
    delightful time of escapades.
    Kedarnath and its nearby fascinations gives excellent
    opportunities to the pious, brave, and the courageous.
