Yamuna
The Yamuna River, one of the major rivers in Uttarakhand, holds cultural, historical, and ecological significance in the region. Originating from the Yamunotri Glacier, the river meanders through the picturesque landscapes of Uttarakhand before flowing into other states. The town of Yamunotri, nestled in the Garhwal Himalayas, is a significant pilgrimage site as it marks the source of the Yamuna. Like its counterpart, the Ganges, the Yamuna is considered sacred in Hinduism, and its banks are dotted with temples and ghats that draw pilgrims seeking spiritual blessings.
