Maa Vaishno Devi Yarta 2010 - Jai Mata Di

Hi All,

This weekend I am going to Katra in Jammu & Kashmir, India to seek the blessing of Maa Vaishno Devi. I still remember the time I webt there in the past, its a great sacred feeling. Devotees climbing up hill by foot, pithoo or by horse even helicopter service is available. But I fell goin uphill to the Mata Vaishnoo Devi shrine by foot is the most exciting one, people goin up hill and downside saying "Jai Mata Di" is an unforgetable experience.

About Mata Vaishno Devi Temple: Shri Maa Vaishno Devi temples is one of the most visited temples in India. Every year around 8 million pilgrims visit the holy shrine to seek the belssing of Mata Vaishnoo Devi. Maa Vaishnoo Devi Shrine is one of the oldest shrine of India which is located at a height of 5300 feet on the holy Trikuta Hills.
