Gateway to the Gods: Haridwar, Rishikesh (Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, Badrinath)

 
Rupinder Khullar (Author) Reeta (Author)
Synopsis Gateway to the Gods : Haridwar Rishikesh gives the reader a comprehensive glimpse of the overpowering and mesmerizing effect this eternal city has on everyone who visits this abode of Gods in the foothills of Shivalik. Besides Haridwar, the text covers the four sacred dhams of the Hindus--Badrinath, Kedarnath, Gangotri and Yamunotri--the picturesque valley of flowers, Dehradun, the capital of Uttaranchal, and the popular hill resort of Mussoorie. The book gives an insight of the origin of this holy city that lies embedded in legendary tales and fables. The text is accompanied by captivating and enchanting pictures--be it the shrines of this spiritual city blessed by the Holy Trinity or its busy streets, eating houses, the beautiful peaks surrounding the city and the pilgrims reciting aarti or performing religious rituals in the Holy Ganges. The real-life pictures in the book take the reader to this sacred pilgrimage centre of the Hindus so that he can see its shrines and feel the holy touch.
