Rishikesh is a holy city for Hindus as a famous pilgrimage center and is only about 25 km from Haridwar . The city attracts hundreds of thousands of pilgrims and tourists every year, from India as well as in other countries . The sacred Ganges River flows through Rishikesh leaving the Himalayas and the Shivalik mountain range behind. It offers some great and perfect situations for rafting with rapids and is very popular for many other adventure sports that this terrain offers.
Rishikesh, sometimes known as “the world capital of Yoga”, has numerous yoga centers that also attract tourists. It is believed that meditation at Rishikesh brings us closer to the attainment of Moksha, as does a bath in the sacred river that flows through it.
