Rishikesh is a city in India’s northern state of Uttarakhand, in the Himalayan foothills beside the Ganges River. The river is considered holy, and the city is renowned as a center for studying yoga and meditation. Temples and ashrams (centers for spiritual studies) line the eastern bank around Swarg Ashram, a traffic-free, alcohol-free and vegetarian enclave upstream from Rishikesh town. It’s a pilgrimage town with beautiful nature and a deep spiritual connection – what better place to immerse yourself deep into yogic studies.

Due to its location on the river and proximity to nature, Rishikesh has far more to it than its multitude of yoga offerings. Waterfalls, treks, and white water rafting await you here, not to mention plenty of delicious restaurants, cafes, and chill-out spots.
