Though India is adored for its variety in travel destinations and the varying climatic conditions, there are only a few places in reality where one gets to explore forests and snow peaks while walk on sandy beaches all at the same time. Rishikesh is one of them. This place has plenty to offer to people of ages and individuals of all temperaments. The sounds of silence on one end and the bustling noise of the markets on the other, it is impossible to fathom the depth of this place unless one visits it personally.
Less traffic on the streets makes driving and city watching quite a pleasure in itself. Almost at every other turn, jeeps can be spotted ferrying pilgrims from the residential or tourist areas of Rishikesh to
the numerous temple premises. It is quite a contrast as you see homeless men at one part of the city while rich tourist seem to bargain for Rishikesh budget hotels packages in other parts. Take a detour and by all means, you have every possibility of entering an elephant territory! Continuing on the same path would land you in Jim Corbett, one of the oldest national parks in India. here are amazing beaches by the river that allow campers to set up tents and a bonfire. The confluence of
Alakananda besides several other head streams right into the Ganges is what has created these little beaches that are not so easy to find along the lines of a river.
Rishikesh, apart from its highly admirable natural beauty, is also a spiritual hub. Devotees and pilgrims can be spotted at every turn either worshipping the river or offering prayers and conducting strange rituals that captivate you just by their unique chants that echo all around. Sages can often be spotted meditating and foreign tourists get so fascinated that they shop for spiritual articles that they see in the local bazaars. Whether you choose to go for Rishikesh budget hotels packages or exotic resorts, you can be assured of this beautiful amalgamation of peace and sound in the most amazing manner.
The food is quite different but extremely healthy and a great change if you are used to eating spicy and hot cuisines. There are sweets and savouries that you will not find in any other Indian state. Rishikesh budget hotels packages sometimes also include these menus as a novel treat to your taste buds.
