Rishikesh is a city near Dehradun in the state of Uttarakhand. It is situated right at the banks of River Ganga which flows down the Himalayas and flows through the plains at Rishikesh. It is believed that God by the name of “Hrishikesh” had appeared as an answer to the hard penances by Rabhiya Rishi and henceforth the place derived its name. https://himalayashelter.com/RISHIKESH-TOUR-HIGHLIGHTS
