Good article, thogh could have been better with car review portions. Perhaps writer should have considered writing his reviews in another article.

A query -

``There had originally been a Buddhist temple at the site but it was supplanted by a Hindu temple by Shankaracharya who had also converted Buddhist temples at Badrinath and other places.``

what is source of author`s information about Shankracharya converting buddhist temples at Badrinath? I have been deep in Garwal/Kumaon himalayas, couldn`t find a trace of them.

Regards
