Sacred journeys to spiritual destinations

Pilgrimage

Madurai

Tamil Nadu

Home to the legendary Meenakshi Amman Temple, Madurai is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities on Earth. The temple's 14 towering gopurams, adorned with thousands of painted sculptures, are a marvel of Dravidian architecture. The nightly temple closing ceremony is a spiritual experience unlike any other.

Rameshwaram

Tamil Nadu

Set on a serene island in the Palk Strait, Rameshwaram is where Lord Rama is said to have built his bridge to Lanka. The Ramanathaswamy Temple here has the longest corridor of any temple in India — a colonnaded masterpiece stretching 1200 metres. Sacred, serene, and profoundly moving.

Kanyakumari

Tamil Nadu

At the southernmost tip of India, where the Arabian Sea, the Bay of Bengal, and the Indian Ocean converge, Kanyakumari holds extraordinary spiritual energy. Watch the sunrise and sunset from the same spot, visit the iconic Vivekananda Rock Memorial, and feel the power of three seas meeting beneath your feet.

Trivandrum

Kerala

The Padmanabhaswamy Temple in Thiruvananthapuram is not just a place of worship — it is considered the world's richest temple, with treasures estimated in the trillions. The presiding deity, Lord Vishnu in Anantha Shayanam posture stretching across 18 feet, is a sight of breathtaking grandeur and devotion.

Guruvayur

Kerala

Known as the Dwarka of the South, Guruvayur's Krishna temple is one of the most visited pilgrimage sites in India, and the temple elephant sanctuary here is world-famous. Witnessing the early morning Nirmalya darshan — the deity adorned in jewels and fresh flowers at 3 AM — is a memory that stays with you forever.

Trichy Srirangam

Tamil Nadu

Sri Ranganathaswamy Temple in Srirangam is the largest functioning Hindu temple complex in the world, covering 156 acres across 7 concentric walls. Dedicated to Lord Vishnu and foremost among the 108 Divya Desams, the sheer scale, living tradition, and ancient history make it unmissable for every pilgrim.

Velankanni

Tamil Nadu

On the Coromandel Coast, the Basilica of Our Lady of Good Health draws millions of devotees from all faiths each year. Known as the Lourdes of the East, the church has a centuries-old history of miraculous healings. The September festival is one of the largest Christian gatherings in all of Asia.

Kasi (Varanasi)

Uttar Pradesh

Varanasi is not just a city — it is an experience of life, death, and everything in between. The oldest living city in the world sits on the banks of the Ganga, where every dawn brings thousands of devotees to the sacred ghats. The evening Ganga Aarti, with its flames, chants, and incense, is one of the most profound spectacles on Earth.

Rishikesh

Uttarakhand

The yoga capital of the world, Rishikesh sits where the Ganga descends from the Himalayas into the plains. Beyond spirituality, it offers white-water rafting, bungee jumping, and meditation retreats — a rare blend of adventure and inner peace. The evening aarti at Triveni Ghat is hauntingly beautiful.

Gateway to Himalayas

Char Dham

Uttarakhand

The four sacred shrines of Gangotri, Yamunotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath sit high in the Uttarakhand Himalayas, accessible only in summer months. Completing the Char Dham Yatra is the ultimate Hindu pilgrimage — a physically challenging and spiritually transformative journey through the world's most dramatic mountain landscapes.

Four sacred Hindu pilgrimage sites

Kailash Manasarovar

Tibet

Mount Kailash, rising 6638 metres in Tibet, is regarded as the abode of Lord Shiva and sacred to Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, and Bon followers alike. The 52-km parikrama around the sacred mountain is one of the most challenging and spiritually rewarding journeys a pilgrim can undertake in a lifetime.

Ultimate pilgrimage in Hinduism

Shirdi

Maharashtra

In a small town in Maharashtra, Sai Baba preached a simple truth: love, faith, and unity of all religions. Today, Shirdi draws over 25,000 devotees daily from every faith and walk of life. The atmosphere of absolute devotion at the Samadhi Mandir — where Sai Baba's mortal remains rest — is deeply moving.
