The submerged Shivling in the river is believed to be the spot where Lord Shiva received Ganga in his matted locks.
Scenic Beauty: Nestled in the lap of the Himalayas, Gangotri is surrounded by snow-capped peaks and pristine glaciers. The Bhagirathi River, originating from the Gangotri Glacier, adds to the picturesque setting, creating an atmosphere of divine tranquility.
Benefits for Pilgrims: Bathing in the icy waters of the Ganges at Gangotri is believed to purify the soul and wash away sins. Pilgrims also visit the submerged Shivling, submerged in the river, which is considered a representation of Lord Shiva.
