Triveni Ghat
The main ghat in Rishikesh and the site of the evening Ganga Aarti — usually the busiest and most atmospheric riverside spot in town.
Laxman Jhula and Ram Jhula
Two iconic suspension bridges across the Ganga, each surrounded by temples, shops and cafés on both banks.
Bajrang Setu
A newer pedestrian suspension bridge over the Ganga with a glass-floor viewing section, built as an additional crossing near Laxman Jhula.
Parmarth Niketan
One of Rishikesh's largest ashrams, on the banks of the Ganga near Ram Jhula, known for its own evening aarti and yoga programs.
Neelkanth Mahadev Temple
A Shiva temple in the hills above Rishikesh, reachable by road or on foot, popular with pilgrims and offering views over the surrounding forest.
Beatles Ashram (Chaurasi Kutia)
The former Maharishi Mahesh Yogi ashram, now a heritage site with Beatles-themed murals inside the Rajaji National Park buffer area.
Rajaji National Park
A short drive from town, this national park offers wildlife safaris and is one of the easier nature escapes near Rishikesh.
