Kunjapuri
Kunjapuri is the name given to a peak having an altitude of about 1,676 m above from the sea level. There is a holy temple named as Kunjapuri temple and one of the most visited places of Tehri district not because of just its story related to gods and goddesses but also for his panoramic view of Garhwal Himalayan peaks. It commands a beautiful view of the snow-ranges of the Himalayas like Swargarohini, Gangotri, Banderpunch and Chaukhamba and of the valley of the Bhagirathi like Rishikesh, Haridwar and DoonValley. It is 7 km far away from Narendra Nagar, 15 km from Rishikesh and 93 km far away from Devaprayag.

If you are a nature lover and want to do something different, trek from Hindolakhal village to the temple through the green forest will be more adventurous. It is about 5KM. Travelers also appreciate the sunrise and sunset view from the Himalayan peaks. After reaching to the temple, pilgrims can shoot photographs for their lovely moments spend with their loved ones and enjoy the surrounding beauty. The opening time of Kunjapuri Temple is from 6am to 8am. The best time to visit Kunjapuri Temple is  all round the year. Come here in Navratra season and get the chance to see the Hindu rituals and the beauty of the Indian culture here.

History

Kunjapuri is temple of Goddess Durga , as it being one of the thirteen Shakti Peethas (Power Centers) in Shivalik range and one of the three Shakti Peethas in Tehri district established by Jagadguru Shankaracharya. Other two Shakti Peethas in the district are Surkanda Devi and Chandrabadni. Kunjapuri, along with these two peethas form a holy triangle. Shakti Peethas are the places where body parts of Goddess Sati (incarnation of Goddess Parvati before she took birth as Parvati) fell down while Lord Shiva was carrying her dead body in his arms and roaming unconsciously through the Himalayan ranges of Bharatbarsh after Sati had flung herself in the yajna fires when some derogatory remarks were made about her husband by her father Daksha. The Durga temple at Kunjapuri receives thousands of visitors throughout the year but during Navaratras there is much flow of devotee

Wheel Pose — Chakrasana (CHAAH-kraa-SUN-ah) or Urdhva Dhanurasana — also called as Full-Wheel Pose and Upward Bow Pose, is a backbending posture that opens up the chest, tones the thighs, abdomen and arms, and engages the whole body. As a heart-opening stretch, this pose helps release sadness and depression. It gets its name from the Sanskrit words, chakra, meaning wheel, and asana, meaning posture.

The name comes from the Sanskrit words garuda  meaning "eagle", and asana (आसन) meaning "posture" or "seat".

In Hindu mythology, Garuda is known as the king of birds. He is the vahana (mount) of the God Vishnu and is eager to help humanity fight against demons. The word is usually rendered into English as "eagle", though the name literally means "devourer", because Garuda was originally identified with the "all-consuming fire of the sun's rays".

The name is used for a different pose in the late 17th-century Gheranda Samhita, verse 2.37, which has the legs and thighs on the ground, and the hands on the knees.

A one-legged balancing pose named Garudasana but closer to Vrikshasana is described and illustrated in the 19th century Sritattvanidhi. The modern pose is described in Light on Yoga.
