Divya Shila, the sacred rock near Yamunotri Temple (India)

The powerful rock pillar located near the Surya Kund (sacred hot springs) at Yamunotri, Divya Shila presents a ethereal feeling to the devotees. It is customary that all the devotees should make pujas (prayers) here at Divya Shila before they enter Yamunotri.

The rock is part of the mountain and embedded in the wall of the temple. It is surrounded by a small decorated shrine.
