Triveni Ghat
Triveni Ghat is the most famous and largest ghat in Rishikesh, known for its historical, religious, and cultural significance. It is considered a sacred confluence of three rivers—Ganga, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati, making it a highly revered spot for Hindu devotees. The ghat is always bustling with activity, from people performing rituals and taking holy dips to locals and tourists enjoying the peaceful riverfront.
The highlight of Triveni Ghat is the Maha Aarti, an enchanting evening ceremony where priests chant Vedic hymns, light large brass lamps, and offer prayers to the Ganges. The sight of hundreds of glowing diyas floating on the river creates a surreal and divine atmosphere. The ghat is also known for the Bharat Mandir, Geeta Mandir, and various small shrines dedicated to Hindu deities nearby. Many pilgrims come here to perform Pind Daan and other religious rites for their ancestors.

Laxman Jhula / Ram Jhula Area
The Laxman Jhula and Ram Jhula area is the heart of Rishikesh’s spiritual and cultural life. These two iconic suspension bridges span the Ganges River, connecting the main town with ashrams, temples, and yoga centers. The area is always alive with the energy of travelers, sadhus, and devotees exploring the many religious and cultural attractions.
Laxman Jhula, the older of the two bridges, is steeped in mythology and is believed to be the spot where Lord Laxman, the brother of Lord Rama, crossed the Ganges on a jute rope. The bridge provides a stunning panoramic view of the river and the Himalayan foothills. On both sides, you’ll find famous temples like Tera Manzil Temple (Trimbakeshwar Temple), bustling markets, and vibrant cafes serving international and local cuisines.
Ram Jhula, located a short distance downstream, is similar in design but slightly longer. It connects Swarg Ashram and Sivananda Ashram, two of the most significant spiritual hubs in Rishikesh. The area is dotted with ashrams such as Parmarth Niketan, Sivananda Ashram, and Geeta Bhawan, where people come to learn yoga, meditation, and Vedic teachings. The nearby Beatles Ashram adds to the historical significance, attracting music lovers and spiritual seekers alike.
The Laxman Jhula and Ram Jhula area is perfect for those who wish to experience Rishikesh’s rich spiritual atmosphere, shop for souvenirs, or enjoy the scenic beauty of the Ganges. Whether you’re here for religious purposes or simply to admire the surroundings, this area offers a perfect blend of devotion, culture, and adventure.
Muni Ki Reti Ghat
Muni Ki Reti, meaning ‘Sands of the Sages’, is a sacred riverfront area in Rishikesh, known for its deep spiritual essence and connection to ancient sages and rishis who meditated here. The Muni Ki Reti Ghat is a peaceful retreat away from the main hustle of Rishikesh, offering visitors a place to relax, meditate, and enjoy the beauty of the holy Ganges.
This ghat is lined with numerous ashrams, including Sivananda Ashram, Omkarananda Ashram, and Swarg Ashram, making it a hub for yoga, meditation, and spiritual learning. It is an ideal place for seekers looking for serenity and solitude, as it is relatively less crowded compared to Triveni Ghat.
A dip in the waters here is considered highly purifying, and many devotees come to perform religious ceremonies and rituals. The ghat provides a breathtaking view of the surrounding hills, and the tranquil environment makes it perfect for early morning yoga and meditation sessions.
For those who want a quieter yet equally divine experience in Rishikesh, Muni Ki Reti Ghat is the perfect place to immerse in spirituality, listen to the soothing river waves, and find inner peace.
