Ganga, the stream of life, touched earth for the first time in the Himalayas. The Gangotri shrine, dedicated to the Goddess, is located along Bhagirathi's right rear. The #Gangotri temple, which stands at a height of 3800 metres, was built in the early 18th century by a Gorkha commander named Amar Singh Thapa.
According to Hindu mythology, "Goddess Ganga assumed the form of a river to atone for the misdeeds of King Bhagiratha's forefathers after his centuries-long penance. Lord #shiva took her within his matted hair to soften the blow of her fall. At her mythological origin, she was given the name Bhagirathi". There are many legends associated with the history of Gangotri. Legend says that Ganga, a beautiful vivacious young woman, it is said, was born out of Lord Brahma's kamandalu (water vessel) There are two versions about the birth of Ganga. One says that Brahma washed Lord Vishnu's feet after getting the universe rid of the demon Bali.
