Top Attractions to Tour in Badrinath

Badrinath is surrounded by sites steeped in mythology and natural beauty. Here are the sacred and scenic spots you must visit.

1. Badrinath Temple

The heart of the town, the colourful and intricate Badrinath Temple, is dedicated to Lord Vishnu. The idol of Lord Badri Vishal is made of black stone (Saligram) and is believed to have been installed by Adi Shankaracharya. The temple's vibrant facade against the stark white snow peaks creates a mesmerizing sight. The evening aarti here is a soul-stirring experience that fills the valley with divine energy.

2. Tapt Kund

Before entering the temple, devotees take a holy dip in the Tapt Kund, a natural thermal spring on the banks of the Alaknanda. Despite the freezing surroundings, the water here remains hot year-round, believed to have medicinal properties. It is said to be the abode of Lord Agni, and a dip here cleanses the body and soul before darshan.

3. Mana Village

Just 3 km from Badrinath lies Mana, the "Last Indian Village" before the Tibet border. It is a place straight out of the Mahabharata. You can visit Vyas Gufa, where Sage Vyas is said to have composed the epic, and Ganesh Gufa, where Lord Ganesha wrote it down. The village is also famous for its woolen handicrafts and the warm hospitality of the Bhotia community.

4. Bhim Pul

Located in Mana Village, Bhim Pul is a massive rock forming a natural bridge over the Saraswati River. Legend has it that Bhima, one of the Pandava brothers, placed this rock to help Draupadi cross the roaring river during their journey to heaven. The sight of the Saraswati River thundering beneath the rock before disappearing underground is awe-inspiring.

5. Vasudhara Falls

For those willing to trek a little, Vasudhara Falls is a spectacular sight. Located about 6 km from Mana, this waterfall drops from a height of 400 feet. The water turns into a fine mist before hitting the ground, creating a magical atmosphere. It is believed that the water of Vasudhara turns away from those who are impure at heart.

6. Charan Paduka

A steep 3 km trek from Badrinath takes you to Charan Paduka, a rock that bears the footprints of Lord Vishnu. It is said that he stepped here when he descended from Vaikuntha. The meadow around the rock is filled with wildflowers during the monsoon, offering a breathtaking view of the Badrinath Temple and the valley below.

7. Brahma Kapal

Situated on the banks of the Alaknanda, Brahma Kapal is a flat platform where devotees perform rituals for their ancestors. It is believed that performing Pind Daan here grants salvation to the departed souls. The spiritual significance of this spot draws thousands of people seeking peace for their forefathers.

8. Neelkanth Peak

While not a place you can simply walk to, the Neelkanth Peak dominates the skyline of Badrinath. Known as the "Queen of Garhwal," this snow-clad peak is named after Lord Shiva. As the sun rises, the peak glows in shades of gold and orange, offering a photogenic backdrop that is nothing short of divine.
