History of Rishikesh

Description

Rishikesh, the yoga capital of the world, offers a divine blend of spirituality, nature, and adventure. Begin your journey at the iconic Laxman Jhula, a historic suspension bridge said to mark the spot where Lord Laxman once crossed the Ganges. Just nearby is the sacred Triveni Ghat, where the Ganga, Yamuna, and Saraswati rivers are believed to meet — the evening Ganga Aarti here is a deeply peaceful and soul-stirring experience. For nature lovers, the serene Neer Garh Waterfall offers a cool escape into the hills, with natural pools perfect for a refreshing dip. Finally, immerse yourself in the tranquil spiritual atmosphere of Parmarth Niketan Ashram, known for its yoga retreats, spiritual teachings, and the mesmerizing evening aarti by the river. Whether you seek peace, adventure, or inner awakening, Rishikesh welcomes every traveler with open arms.
