Rudraprayag
The man-eating leopard of Rudraprayag hunted and written about by Jim Corbett lived here.Many of the newer buildings and particularly the Sangam (confluence) area was severely damaged in the 2013 Uttarakhand floods.A footbridge over the Mandakini river and a road bridge 6 km downstream at Raitoli was washed away.Moreover, the Child Sex Ratio in Rudraprayag is around 803 compared to the Uttarakhand state average of 890.Rudraprayag lies on national highway NH58 that connects Delhi with Badrinath and Mana Pass in Uttarakhand near the Indo-Tibet border.Therefore, all buses and vehicles that carry pilgrims from New Delhi to Badrinath, via Haridwar and Rishikesh, in the pilgrimage season of summer months, pass through Rudraprayag on the way to Joshimath, and further north.The road distance from Rishikesh to Rudraprayag is 141 km (88 mi) via Devprayag and Srinagar.Most people believe that the present form of the temple was built by Adi Shankaracharya in the 8th century.
