About Yamunotri

The first Dham en route to the yatra is situated at Yamunotri where the sacred river Yamuna originates. It is named after Goddess Yamuna, the twin sister of Yama (the god of death). Hindu devotees believe that a dip in the holy water of Yamuna can cleanse one’s all sins and protects one from untimely death. The temple of Yamuna, on the left bank of the Yamuna, was constructed by Maharaja Pratap Shah of Tehri Garhwal. 
The deity YAMUNA is made of black marble. The Yamuna, like the Ganges, has been elevated to the status of a divine mother for the Hindus and has been held responsible for nurturing and developing the Indian civilization. There are hot water springs located close to the temple. Surya Kund is the most important kund. Near the Surya Kund, there is a shila called Divya Shila, which is worshipped before puja is offered to the deity.
