Gangotri Temple in the morning

Circled by lofty peaks of the Himalayas, the Gangotri Temple located on the banks of the Ganga at Hrishikesh shines in the bright morning Sun. As the domes and gold-plated spires of the Gangotri shrine shimmer, the pigeons that make the many shaded spaces of the domes emerge to bask in the morning warmth. Hrishikesh is located in the Himalayan state, Uttarakhand.
