Located at an altitude of 3,133 meters, Badrinath is the most prominent and revered among the Panch Badri temples. Situated on the banks of the Alaknanda River, it is one of the Char Dham pilgrimage sites. The temple is dedicated to Lord Vishnu, who is worshipped here in his form as Badrinarayan, seated in a meditative pose. The temple remains open between April and November due to heavy snowfall during the winter months.
