6. Neelkanth Mahadev Temple

Neelkanth Mahadev Temple is a Dravidian style temple in which the main deity is Lord Shiva in the form of Neelkanth.

The easiest way is to rent a scooter and drive yourself. You can also take taxis with rideshare available a few steps away from Laxman Jhula. As of October 2021, it costs INR 100 per person. You also have the option of a private car or jeep.

When you reach the temple, shopkeepers may force you to leave your shoes and take “prasad” for the temple. Ignore them until you see the entrance to the temple building. This is because one has to walk some distance from the parking lot to the temple. So it would be better if you take the prasad near the temple premises and take off your shoes.

7. Marine Drive and Ganga Beachrishikesh

Marine Drive or Aastha Path is a 2.5 km pedestrian walkway along the banks of the mesmerizing Ganga. One end of it is at Ram Jhula which leads to Triveni Ghat. There are benches at regular intervals along the way to sit and contemplate with the view of the Ganges and the mountains.

You can see that many people are enjoying the time with their families. Some young people are taking photos for Instagram, and others are practicing yoga on the beach.

The city of Rishikesh is having this name because of deity of temple – Shri Hrishikesh Narayan.This is the most sacred and ancient temple situated in Jhanda Chowk, the center of Rishikesh. You can easily take a tempo or an auto to reach here.

History reveals that a sage (rishi) named Raibhya once performed a severe penance to please Lord Vishnu. Raibhya Rishi had done penance by controlling all his senses.When Lord Vishnu was appearing, he was showing illusion (Maya) on the insistence of the sage and were saying that in Kaliyuga this place will be known as Hrishikesh.

Lord Hrishikesh is also having another name as Shri Bharat Ji Maharaj.He himself is an incarnation of Lord Vishnu.

The temple offers a peaceful atmosphere on most days. You will find a sacred tree and a museum inside the temple complex.

9. Waterfallsrishikesh

There are about five waterfalls here which are hidding from the eyes of the people. You must visit these in Rishikesh.
