Rishikesh Pilgrimage Tour


Lakshman Jhula Lakshman Jhula: On your Rishikesh Pilgrimage tour you can visit many places which are of your interest. The Lakshman Jhula is one of them.This is a suspended iron bridge constructed in 1939 along the ancient route to Badrinath and Kedarnath. The Ram Jhula has recently reinforced this and together they present an awe-inspiring sight. Along the Ganga is the Triveni Ghat where devout pilgrims flock for bathing and stay to enjoy Maha Aarti performed here every evening. The cool evening breeze and the sylvan beauty of the surroundings make this ghat a peaceful retreat for those who are tired of the clamor and din of city life. A visit to Rishikesh would be incomplete without an excursion to the many temples dotted among the hills.

Haridwar: On this pilgrimage tour you can visit Haridwar, situated on the right side of the bank of the holy Ganga. It is the point where the river spreads over the northern plains. Associated with both Lord Shiva and Lord Vishnu, Haridwar is among the seven sacred cities of India. It is also one of the four venues for the Kumbh Mela, held in its magnitude every twelve years. Essentially a religious centre, which holds promise of salvation for devotees, Haridwar, is also a center of herbal medicine, and traditional studies at Gurukul Kangri. There are many places of scenic beauty on the outskirts of the town. It is said that when the Gods left their footprints on the land of Haridwar, metaphorically they also left an indelible mark on the spiritual ethos of every Hindu more so, the devout, which would later follow their holy paths all across this blessed land. Haridwar stands as the gateway to the four pilgrimages of Uttrakhand. Mentioned as Mayapuri, Gangadwar, Mokshadwar in the ancient scriptures and epics, Haridwar has always remained as a major Shaktipeeth for the devotees.
