Gangotri Temple, one of the Char Dhams of Uttarakhand, has a rich history linked with ancient times. The scriptures like the Ramayana and Other Puranas reveal a few stories about the origin of this place, Gangotri Dham. According to them, once upon a time, there was a King Bhagirathi in the Raghukul Empire of Ayodhya. The family members of this empire were cursed and so did not receive salvation after death.
In Hinduism, the ultimate goal of life is understood as salvation, and so every person puts effort into providing salvation to the ancestors. In the same manner, King Bhagirathi also had a wish as well as the responsibility of providing salvation to ancestors. When nothing worked, he started penance to bring Goddess Ganga to the earth. Because it was believed that whosoever takes a dip in the Ganga river gets free from sins and gets salvation.
After years of hard penance, King Bhagirathi became successful in bringing the Ganga River to the earth. But as the flow of the river was so high, so firstly, God Shiva adapted the river in his hair locks. Thereafter, he opened his hair and the Ganga river finally came to the earth. The place where the holy river Ganga falls is known as Gangotri Dham.
