About this yatra
On the western edge of India, the Arabian Sea touches two of Hinduism's greatest shrines. Dwarka, the kingdom of Shri Krishna, where the flag on Dwarkadhish temple is changed five times a day. And Somnath, the first Jyotirlinga, rebuilt again and again through history and still glowing every evening at aarti.
This 5-day yatra joins them with Nageshwar Jyotirlinga, Bet Dwarka and Porbandar.
