Rafting and Religion at Rishikesh

Rafting and Religion at Rishikesh

Posted on March 28, 2013May 18, 2021

They say there are two reasons why people visit Rishikesh- rafting and religion. I managed to get both in one frame. This was clicked after we completed our rafting near Ram Jhula.

I have to admit I have been keen on rafting. This time I was told by my raft expert Amit that the rapids have been named by Sir Edmund Hillary. I The name that is stuck in my memory is called ‘return to the sender.’ There would be more on rafting at the Ganges soon.

    Ha, ha. Good one. I have just got back from Rishikesh last weekend. Religion is what draws me there. My 7 year old wants us to go rafting. Hopefully soon.

    ‘Yoga’ is also an important reason to visit Rishikesh.
