The month of Sawan started on July 4, and devotees are leaving no stone unturned to prepare for it. They observe fasts during this period to please Lord Shiva, perform rituals, and visit temples to honour God. For those who believe that visiting Jyotirlingas during Sawan is extremely auspicious, IRCTC has created a fantastic package to take you to 7 Jyotirlingas (a Jyotirlinga is a shrine where Lord Shiva is worshipped in the form of a Jyotirlingam) across India. The Bharat Gaurav tourist train will operate from the railway station in Gorakhpur. There will be stops along the way at Omkareshwar, Mahakaleshwar, Somnath, the Dwarkadhish Temple, Nageshwar, Trimbakeshwar, Ghrishneshwar, and the Bhimashankar Jyotirlinga.
