Ganga shrine in Uttarkashi district, part of Uttarakhand’s four-site pilgrimage.
Gangotri is one of the four shrines on Uttarakhand’s Char Dham route and is dedicated to Goddess Ganga. Tradition associates this region with Ganga’s descent to earth; the river’s physical glacial source is at Gaumukh, about 19 km upstream, where it is called the Bhagirathi.
