Urvasi Mandir




Urvasi Mandir is a famous shrine located at Badrinath in Chamoli District. Folklore has it that Urvasi, a celestial dancer in the court of Lord Indra, attained supernatural powers by doing penance here.

As the temple is situated on a snow clad mountain, devotees can visit only six months in a year. The famous Badrinath Temple is the nearby attraction.

Jolly Grant Airport is the nearest airport.
