Symbol of atonement

According to ancient mythology, this temple 🛕 is built by Pandavas (a family name) after their great war fought against Gauravs. If you had read into Indian history Mahabharata is inevitable and the story by itself can make a better thriller than Game of Thrones 👑. Built in the 8th century, this temple is one of the oldest one still standing strong. Situated at the foothills of himalaya this provides a perfect magnanimity and a devotion towards Shiva (a Hindu God). For ages, it is believed that Himalayas 🏔️ is his home and everyone makes a holy hiking 🥾 journey towards this deity. Totally immaculate in its own way, this place should definitely should be in your bucket list if you're traveling to India. You can reach here from the Rishikesh railway station 🚉 or by bus to Gaurikund. #indiatravel #temples #summervacation#hikingtrails
