Laxman Jhula- Who didn’t know this? Laxman Jhula is a 450-foot-long pedestrian bridge that rises 70 feet above the river and is among the most famous landmarks. The footbridge, which was constructed in 1939, is a popular tourist destination since it is said to be the spot where Lord Laxman traversed the River Ganga on a rope made up of jute.
Ram Jhula- It is situated a couple of kilometers from Laxman Jhula. This bridge is similar in construction and everything to Laxman Jhula. This was built in the year 1980. A bit later than Laxman Jhula but it is as popular as Laxman Jhula.
Tera Manzil Mandir- This Mandir has always been my favorite since I’ve been there so many times. This temple is popularly known as Trimbakeshwar Temple. As the name suggests, it has 13 floors and a beautiful elevation. You can visit this temple between 6:00 AM and 7:00 PM.
Triveni Ghat- It is one of Rishikesh’s most well-known ghats and a lovely spot to see the nightly Ganga Aarti. The ghat is regarded as holy, and Hindu mythology claims that bathing in Ganga’s holy river near the ghat may cleanse you of all your misdeeds.
Shivpuri- The favorite place of mine. This place is full of amazing activities. You must experience the spine-chilling water sport that is none other than river rafting. Once you are done with river rafting, I’d suggest you stay in the tents and enjoy the evening with your friends and friends around the bonfire. This place is very different but you are surely going to love this place.
