The Pitru Paksha Tour is a spiritually significant journey undertaken by devotees to honor and pay homage to their ancestors during the sacred period of Pitru Paksha. This 16-lunar day phase occurs in the Hindu month of Bhadrapada, typically between September and October, and is dedicated to performing rituals (Shraddha) for the departed souls.
During this period, it is believed that the souls of ancestors descend to the earthly realm, making it an auspicious time for families to express gratitude and seek blessings for their lineage. The Pitru Paksha Tour often includes visits to sacred sites known for their ancestral rituals, providing an opportunity for reflection, prayer, and connection to one’s heritage.
