Description |
THE CENTRAL Himalayas comprise the region which was called Uttar-khand in the olden days and includes Kumaon and Garhwal hills. This whole area is replete with marvellous beauty of nature. Nowhere are God's attributes and divine manifestations mirrored with greater perfection than here. The holiest of the holy shrines-Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarth, Badrinath and the Gurdwara Shri Hemkunt Sahib-are all located in Uttarakhand. The area finds a mention in the earliest Sanskrit literature. For centuries, it has attracted throngs of people of all shades of faith. Indeed, in the history and evolution of the Hindu religion, no place is as important as is Uttarakhand.
