Yamunotri Temple, Hindu temple in Uttarkashi district, India.
The Yamunotri Temple stands at an elevation of 3,291 meters in the western Garhwal Himalayas, featuring a black marble idol of Goddess Yamuna.
The temple structure required reconstruction multiple times throughout its history due to damage from heavy snow accumulation and flooding in the mountain region.
The temple marks the beginning point of the sacred Char Dham pilgrimage circuit, which Hindu devotees undertake through the mountainous regions of Uttarakhand.
Visitors can reach the temple through a 13-kilometer trek from Hanuman Chatti or a 6-kilometer walk from Janki Chatti, with horse and palanquin services available.
The temple grounds include the Surya Kund hot spring, where water reaches temperatures high enough to cook rice and potatoes for religious offerings.
