Kedarnath

Kedarnath is a pilgrimage site or tirtha dedicated to the Hindu deity Shiva. It is one of the prominent pilgrimage sites that form part of the Uttarakhand Char Dham Yatra, also known as the Chota Char Dham yatra. The temple's construction is credited to the Pandava brothers mentioned in the Mahabharata. However, the Mahabharata does not mention any place called Kedarnath. One of the earliest references to Kedarnath occurs in the Skanda Purana (c. 7th-8th century), which names Kedara (Kedarnath) as the place where Shiva released the holy waters of Ganga from his matted hair, resulting in the formation of the Ganges River.
