📍 Charanpaduka, Badrinath
Perched at an altitude of 3,380 ft above sea level, the Charanpaduka boulder is considered a spiritual site. It is believed that this boulder has the imprints of Lord Vishnu's feet that were etched when he had stepped down from Vaikunth (celestial abode of the lord) and set his divine feet on earth. Another story recounts that Lord Krishna had suggested his minister Uddhav to visit Badrinath with his slippers or charanpaduka on, and that is how his footprint got etched in the boulder. This incident also finds a mention in the Bhagwat Purana.

The name of the Badrinath tirtha originates from the local word badri which is a type of a wild berry. It is said that when Lord Vishnu sat in penance in these mountains, His consort Goddess Laxmi took the form of a berry tree and shaded Him from the harsh sun. It is not only the dwelling place of the Lord Himself but also home to countless pilgrims, saints and sages, who meditate here in search of enlightenment.
