Kedarkantha, located in the Uttarkashi district of Uttarakhand, India, holds a special place in local lore. The name “Kedarkantha” combines “Kedar” (Lord Shiva) and “Kantha” (throat). Legend has it that Kedarkantha was initially chosen as the site for the Kedarnath temple. However, due to interruptions, the temple was constructed at its current location in Kedarnath.
