KEDARNATH 
The Himalayan abode of Lord Maheswar 

The other parts of the Lord's body like, limbs, face, navel and jata appeared at other places such as arms at Tunganath, face at Rudranath, belly at Madhameswar, jata at Kapaleswar and front part at Nepal. The legend ends that Siva when entered thus became five fold; and all are held sacred. All these places are located in the Himalayas and they go by the name of Pancha Kedara. The Pandavas then built a shrine and worshipped Him with unequalled fervour. It is laid that the very same temple is existing without 'alterations and the self-same Siva linga is worshipped by the devotees now.
