Maa Vaishno Devi shrine is conveniently located from Delhi.Vaishno devi tour is considered extremely pious for Hindus. The journey is tough but the devotion of the pilgrims makes it appear easy.

Located in the Trikuta Hills of Jammu, Vaishno Devi is one of the most revered shrines of India. Actually a cave, it is the abode of the the mother Goddess, who is worshipped in the form of Maha Kali, Maha Lakshmi and Maha Saraswati. It is not just a Hindu pilgrimage spot, it is also the site for cleansing your spirit and rejuvenation of your soul. Pilgrimage is, of course, a quest and expression of one’s faith!

When you look at the innumerable crowd of devotees visiting Vaishno Devi and Amarnath every year—it will surely make you wonder, which invisible force compel so many expectants year after year. Nevertheless, it’s some sort of miracle that every year devotees assemble in large numbers to pay their homage to Vaishno Devi Maa in spite of severe cold, landslide and huge distance.
