Panch Kedar

Panch Kedar refers to a group of five sacred Hindu temples dedicated to Lord Shiva, located in the Garhwal region of Uttarakhand, India. These temples are Kedarnath, Tungnath, Rudranath, Madhyamaheshwar, and Kalpeshwar, each situated at varying altitudes and offering a unique spiritual experience. The journey to these temples is a significant pilgrimage for devotees, requiring physical endurance due to the remote and challenging terrain. Each temple holds its own mythological significance, with Kedarnath being the most famous among them, believed to be where the Pandavas performed penance after the Mahabharata war. Collectively, the Panch Kedar symbolizes devotion, penance, and the divine presence of Lord Shiva.
