Sacred Places

 

The Hindu religious life is inextricably linked to India's terrain, which is dotted with hallowed locations known as tirthas.

These may be lakes, rivers, mountains, or any other natural feature; cities, temples, or any other man-made setting; or even the presence of holy men and women.

Pilgrimage (tirthayatra) to any holy spot is a way to improve spiritually and religiously.
