Yamunotri temple has a shrine dedicated to the goddess. There is also an 18th-century temple at Gangotri; it was built by Garhwal Naresh Pratap Shah; it was damaged and re-innovated in the 19th century.The temple has been destroyed twice by snow and floods before being rebuilt. It is located on the backdrop of Bandarpunch.The temple is part of the revered CharDham pilgrimage circuit.
The temple opens on Akshaya Tritiya (May)[ and closes on Yama Dwitiya (the second day after Diwali, November) for the winter. A little ahead is the actual source of the river Yamuna, which is at an altitude of about 4,421 metres (14,505 ft) approximately. Two hot springs are also present at Yamunotri, offering relief to tired hikers at a height of 3,292 metres (10,801 ft). Surya Kund has boiling hot water, while Gauri Kund has tepid water suitable for bathing .The spring water is said to be hot enough to cook rice and potatoes. Lodging at the temple itself is limited to a few small ashrams and guest-houses. Ritual duties, such as the making and distribution of prasad (sanctified offerings) and the supervision of pujas (ritual venerations), are performed by the Uniyal family of pujaris (priests). Unique aspects of ritual practice at the site include hot springs, where raw rice is cooked and made into prasad.
