World Heritage Site New Addition: Mount Fuji + UNESCO World Heritage site

A great news for heritage lovers for all over the world. Many of us already know but still I want to throw a light on UNESCO, A United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) World Heritage Site is a place (such as a forest, mountain, lake, island, desert, monument, building, complex, or city) that is listed by the UNESCO as of special cultural or physical significance. 




Introduction:
 Mount Fuji is the highest volcano and highest peak in Japan and considered one of the 3 Holy Mountains (along with Mount Tate and Mount Haku). Fuji is a perfect, beautiful Strato volcano about 60 miles south-west of Tokyo, with an exceptionally symmetrical shape making it into famous symbol of Japan and an important element in Japanese art. The present-day, mainly basaltic edifice started to grow about 11-8,000 years ago when large lava flows were erupted that still form 25% of the volume of the edifice today.


Official Climbing Season
July and August are the official climbing season. During these two months the mountain is usually free of snow, the weather is relatively mild, access by public transportation is easy and the mountain huts are open. Everybody without much hiking experience is advised to tackle the mountain during the official climbing season


Paragliding
Para-gliders take off in the vicinity of the fifth station Gotemba parking lot, between Subashiri and Hōei-zan peak on the south side from the Mountain, in addition to several other locations depending on wind direction. Several paragliding schools use the wide sandy/grassy slope between Gotenba and Subashiri parking lots as a training hill.



Hot to Reach there:

By Air: 
The closest airport with scheduled international service is Mt. Fuji Shizuoka Airport.

India Vs England : Champians Trophy Final + One Day International Records England vs India +India vs England games


Heading into the Sunday's final, Mahi's Team India have thrashed all their opponents with disdain to record their four-match winning streak in the tournament. On the other hand, Alastair Cook, leading England in a major ICC tournament for the first time, will be eager to continue the good run and become the first skipper from his country to lift an ICC trophy in a 50-over competition.



India, the current world champions and top-ranked ODI side, also came close to winning the title twice – in Kenya (2000) and Sri Lanka (2002). England have won only one premier ICC tournament till date – the WT20 title. They have never won a major ICC 50-over competition.


 India's average of 65.46 runs per wicket is by far the best of all teams in the tournament, while England's 35 is comfortably the second-best; ditto with the run rates of 5.93 (India) and 5.65 (England). As a bowling unit, India have taken the most wickets in the tournament - 37 - followed by England's 30.


The bowling comparison
As a bowling unit, there isn't much to choose between the two sides.India's bowlers have taken more wickets at a better average and economy rate, thanks largely to their spinners. Led by Jadeja, India's spin attack has taken 16 wickets at an average of 20.75 and an economy rate of 4.15. England's star in the bowling department has been James Anderson. He has taken twice as many wickets as the next-best for England


Top-5 Indian performers
Shikhar Dhawan
Ravindra Jadeja

Top-5 performers for England:

Jonathan Trott
Alastair Cook
James Anderson
Stuart Broad

Many matches in this tournament have been affected by rain with the match between South Africa and West indies proving to be a crucial one as the match ended in a tie under D/L method. So Pray for no rain and good cricket. :) All the best India... Chak De

Shri KedarNath Temple : Holiest & Highest Jyotirling + Kedar Nath Temple Openings + Timing + Kedarnath Tour










One among the twelve Jyotirlingas of Lord Shiva, the holiest of shrines in the Hindu religion and a very significant destination of the Chardham quartet, the majestic Kedarnath temple sits at a high altitude of 3583 mts above sea level surrounded by the mighty peaks of the Himalayas near the Mandakini river in Kedarnath, Uttarakhand in India.
There are Four Other Kedars
  • Madhyamaheshwar
  • Tunganath
  • Kalpeshwar
  • Rudranath
Legend Behind Kedarnath Temple:-
The origin of the revered temple can be found in the great epic - Mahabharata. According to legends, the Pandavas sought the blessings of lord Shiva to atone their sin after the battle of Mahabharata. Lord Shiva eluded them repeatedly and while fleeing took refuge at Kedarnath in the form of a bull. On being followed, he dived into ground leaving behind his hump on the surface. The remaining portions of Lord Shiva appeared at four other places and are worshipped there as his manifestations.The arms appeared at Tungnath, the face at Rudranath, the belly at Madmaheshwar and his locks (hair) with head at Kalpeshwar. Kedarnath and the four above mentioned shrines are treated as Panch Kedar.


Structure of Kedarnath Temple:-
Kedarnath Shrine is scenically placed amidst the lofty, snow - covered mountains and grassy meadows covering the valleys. Immediately behind the temple is the high Keadardome peak, which can be sighted from great distances. It is believed that the temple of Kedarnath was constructed by the Pandavas. At the entrance of the temple is the statue of Nandi, the divine bull of Shiva. Walls inside the temple are exquisitely carved with images. The revered Shiva Lingam housed in the temple is in the unusual pyramidal form.


Best Time to visit:-
The ideal time or peak season to go for a Char Dham Yatra is from May to October, except monsoons. This is because; all the four sacred sites are perched in Garhwal Himalayas, which is prone to heavy snowfall. As a result, all the passage leading to the shrines are blocked. Moreover, during the monsoon season, there is undue threat of having landslides, which can further disrupt the journey. For safety reasons, the gates of the temples are also closed for this period of time and the idols are shifted to nearby pilgrim points.


Note:-Kedarnath Temple is open for devotees from 6 am to 2 pm and 5 pm to 8 pm.Shingar Darshan is from 5 pm onwards and Aarti is performed at 6:45 pm. Sharavani Annakoot Mela is celebrated on the day before Raksha Bandhan during August. Special Samadhi puja is help on the closing day of Kedarnath
