Kedarnath Temple, located in the Garhwal Himalayan range near the Mandakini River in Uttarakhand, India, is one of the most revered Hindu temples dedicated to Lord Shiva. It is part of the Chota Char Dham pilgrimage and is renowned for its stunning architecture and spiritual significance. The temple is believed to have been originally constructed by the Pandavas and later revived by Adi Shankaracharya in the 8th century. Due to its high altitude of 3,583 meters (11,755 feet), the temple is accessible only during specific months, typically from April to November, as it remains closed in the winter due to heavy snowfall.
