Rivers overflowing during the rainy season, gushing water fountains delight contemplation. The dense green vegetation appears to offer great mental tranquillity. Whether you are a traveller or an explorer, Rishikesh should be on your itinerary. Whenever I reached Rishikesh, it seemed as if nature wanted to face you.<\/p><div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_66_1 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\r\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\r\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title \" >Table of Contents<\/p>\r\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\r\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/rishikesh-travel-blog\/#Rishikesh_Prelude\" title=\"Rishikesh: Prelude\">Rishikesh: Prelude<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/rishikesh-travel-blog\/#Rishikesh_Where_to_stay\" title=\"Rishikesh: Where to stay\">Rishikesh: Where to stay<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/rishikesh-travel-blog\/#Rishikesh_Places_to_Visit\" title=\"Rishikesh: Places to Visit\">Rishikesh: Places to Visit<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/rishikesh-travel-blog\/#Rishikesh_What_we_did\" title=\"Rishikesh: What we did\">Rishikesh: What we did<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/rishikesh-travel-blog\/#Rishikesh_Organic_Experience\" title=\"Rishikesh: Organic Experience\">Rishikesh: Organic Experience<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rishikesh_Where_to_stay\"><\/span><strong>Rishikesh: Where to stay<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One can find many hotels in the main market, but for those who want to explore, a relaxed place like a guest house or a holiday home could be a better option. On the Rishikesh to Dehradun road, there are many options near Jolly Grant airport. Even staying at Shivpuri Road would be a good option, but nowadays you can get traffic here.<\/p>\r\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rishikesh_Places_to_Visit\"><\/span><strong>Rishikesh: Places to Visit<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many places to visit in Rishikesh, such as Triveni Dham, Kunjapuri Devi Temple, Parmarth Niketan Ashram, Ram Jhula, Laxman Jhula, Muni ki Reti, Neer Garh Waterfall, Beatles Ashram, and Bhootnath Temple. You have to climb a little to get to these places.<\/p>\r\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2015 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-1-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"Rishikesh\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-1-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-1-150x113.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-1.jpeg 400w\" data-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 300px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 300\/225;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2015\" src=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-1-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"Rishikesh\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-1-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-1-150x113.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-1.jpeg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rishikesh_What_we_did\"><\/span><strong>Rishikesh: What we did<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can see these places by including trekking in your plan or by taking a rented vehicle. You will get scooter bikes on rent from the main market. For Kunjapuri Devi Temple one choice is the morning trekking tour, which begins by taking you to the temple for sunrise, then treks down through the countryside, stopping at Neer Garh Waterfall, to return to Rishikesh. If you have your own vehicle or a rented one, you would love to stop at bridges, beaches and waterfalls. This is a must-do and is also a great way to spend the day and get to know Rishikesh better than the typical tourist attractions. And yes, don&#8217;t forget to watch Ganga ji&#8217;s Aarti at Triveni Ghat in the evening.<\/p>\r\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2016 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-2-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"Rishikesh\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-2-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-2-150x200.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-2.jpeg 300w\" data-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 225px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 225\/300;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2016\" src=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-2-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"Rishikesh\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-2-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-2-150x200.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-2.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sitting comfortably for a few moments on the banks of the Ganges will give you a good experience. Those who are in love with books, with a good book, may spend entire days just gazing at the raging Ganges.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Well, any trip guide would not be complete without the cuisine. And yes, of course, in Rishikesh, it is much simpler to find delicious North Indian and South Indian food as well. I truly enjoyed the mouthwatering food at the Rajasthani Restaurant, a well-liked neighbourhood restaurant near Triveni Ghat.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">River rafting must be included in any discussion about Rishikesh. It is an unavoidable attraction for many people worldwide to experience this thrilling adventure sport. One can experience cliff-jumping, rappelling, river crossing, rock climbing, zip-lining, and bungee jumping are great ways to interact with nature and connect with the charismatic charm of the Himalayas, offering a great backdrop of the mighty mountains, giving the whole place a splendid appeal.<\/p>\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rishikesh_Organic_Experience\"><\/span><strong>Rishikesh: Organic Experience<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to these locations, if you wish to explore more, head to the Dehradun route from Natraj Chowk via a forest, turn from Barkot Mafi village, and close to Thano village is the lovely ashram of Baba Neem Karoli, which is situated on a hill and where you may experience serenity. Once you exit, head toward Shastradhara, where there are a lot of restaurants situated along the way. You must eat food there, enjoy masala pakodies (fritters) with tea, and spend a few moments of peace. The menu cards of these restaurants could be quite interesting, but the highlight is the gorgeous views. You will get to see greenery and very scenic views on your way.<\/p>\r\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2017 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-3-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"Rishikesh\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-3-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-3-150x200.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-3.jpeg 240w\" data-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 225px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 225\/300;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2017\" src=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-3-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"Rishikesh\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-3-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-3-150x200.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-3.jpeg 240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In case you have extra time, consider planning a trip to Dehradun. You should take the kids with you to the zoo in Dehradun. Trekking to the Shikhar Fall, which is close to the zoo, is another nearby destination. There is a beautiful waterfall, but this checking is a bit of effort.<\/p>\r\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2018 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-4-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"Rishikesh\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-4-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-4-150x200.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-4.jpeg 240w\" data-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 225px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 225\/300;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2018\" src=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-4-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"Rishikesh\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-4-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-4-150x200.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/guidinglights.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rishikesh-4.jpeg 240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You will undoubtedly return home with some lovely memories that we will cherish always.
