Uttarakhand Sights

The lower Himalayan state of Uttarakhand is locked in by Himachal Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Tibet, and Nepal. The high-altitude Garhwal Mountains contain the sacred Char Dhams (Four Temples)—Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath—which draw thousands of Hindu pilgrims every year. Nanda Devi and soaring mountains in the north inspire the bold. But most foreign travelers stick to the foothills, exploring the holy cities of Rishikesh and Haridwar and the faded grandeur of hill stations Mussoorie and Nainital, with a stop to spot tigers at the famed Corbett National Park.
