Background

BEFORE

AFTERAFTER

Kedarnath,one of the twelve jyotirlings, is an important hindu pilgrimage. Kedarnath temple is believed to have been constructed in the 8th century. Before disaster, kedarpuri was densly built leading to haphazard development and narrow streets near temple. The extents of kedarpuri were wide.

In June 2013, Kedarnath valley was hit by flash floods. Majority of the area was completely washed away.This lead to the formation of a natural visual access towards the temple.Loss of infrastructure and land lead to the decrease in the extents of kedarpuri.Yet the temple stands strong, giving us a chance to restore it in a better way.
