Description:

Bird's eye view of Kartik Swami Mandir at Malkhi in Uttarakhand, as seen aerially from the air. The temple is located on a knife‑sharp ridge with thick forest on all sides. It is near Kanak Chauri village on the Rudraprayag‑Pokhari route, a 3‑km trek from the village. Dedicated to Lord Kartikeya, the son of Shiva and Parvati, the temple is known for its natural idol carved on a marble‑like rock and perched atop a narrow ridge, offering panoramic views of the Himalayas.
