Yulla Kanda - World’s Highest Krishna Temple.
The Yulla Kanda (3,895m) trek is a spiritual trek in Himachal Pradesh’s Rora valley, Kinnaur district. The Yulla Kanda trek is best done between May and November. Yulla Khas is the closest village to the base camp, and the total trek distance is about 12 kilometres. Yulla Kanda trekking provides a breathtaking view of the Kinnaur mountains.
It also has an ancient Lord Krishna Temple located within the lake. The Pandavas are said to have built this holy lake during their exile in the Himalayas, and it is the highest Krishna temple in the world. Yulla Kanda trekking begins in Yulla Khas, a small village on a hillside. This small village, famous for its Kinnauri apples, is only 3 kilometres from Urni Village and is rich in culture.
The Pandavas constructed the lake during their exile. Following the completion of the lake, the temple was built. The temple’s most notable feature is its elevation above sea level (12780 feet), making it the world’s highest temple. Another significant point is that people of any religion, caste, or creed are welcome to come and pray to Lord Krishna. Everyone is welcomed with an open heart and a tight warm hug.
