Five Sacred Shrines of Lord Vishnu
The Panch Badri constitutes a group of five highly revered Hindu temples dedicated to Lord Vishnu, located in the Garhwal Himalayas of Uttarakhand. According to mythology, these temples mark the different forms and phases of Lord Vishnu's presence in the region, offering pilgrims deep spiritual cleansing and ultimate salvation.
Vishal Badri (Badrinath) is the main and most famous temple among the five, seated along the banks of the Alaknanda river. Yogdhyan Badri, located at Pandukeshwar, is where King Pandu is believed to have meditated, and it serves as the winter abode for the Utsava Murti (festival deity) of Lord Badrinath.
Bhavishya Badri (accessible via a short scenic trek) is prophesied to be the future seat of Badrinath when the current route gets blocked. Vridh Badri at Animath is where Narada is said to have worshiped Lord Vishnu in the form of an old man. Adi Badri comprises a magnificent group of 16 ancient temples dating back to the Gupta period.
