Kedarnath Temple is one of the holiest Hindu shrines dedicated to Lord Shiva, resting at an altitude of 3,583 meters (11,755 feet) near the head of the Mandakini River in Uttarakhand. Ranking among the twelve sacred Jyotirlingas and serving as the primary stop of the Chota Char Dham circuit, this ancient stone temple is framed against the sheer glacier cliffs of the majestic Mount Kedarnath and Kedar Dome.
According to tradition, the temple was originally built by the Pandavas and later restored in the 8th century by Adi Guru Shankaracharya. Massive grey stone slabs interlocking without mortar have allowed the shrine to withstand centuries of heavy avalanches, glacial movements, and extreme Himalayan winters. Millions of devotees undertake the arduous mountain trek each year to offer prayers at the triangular naturally formed rock lingam inside the sanctum.
Kedarnath Temple is reached via road up to Gaurikund, followed by an uphill mountain trek or helicopter flight.
The temple opens on the auspicious day of Akshaya Tritiya (late April/early May) and closes on Bhai Dooj (late October/early November).
