The banks are lined with ashrams, where saints and holy men rested before beginning their arduous pilgrimage up into the snow-covered land of the gods.
  • Rishikesh is essentially a combination of five different districts- Rishikesh the commercial centre, Muni-ki-reti in the quiet suburbs, Shivananda Nagar to the north, Lakshmanjhula with its holy shrines and Swarg Ashram where most of the ashrams are located.

This occasion is commemorated with special celebrations on the day of Basant Panchami, the spring festival.Swarg Ashram, with its numerous ashrams, food stalls and shops is a haunt for those looking for insights into religious themes.

Important shrines and ashrams at Swarg Ashram include Kali Kumbliwale founded by Swami Vishudhananda, Parmarth Niketan with large statues of gods and goddesses and the Gita Bhavan with its Ayurvedic dispensary and shop selling religious books and cotton Khadi.About 2 kms upstream is the old footbridge called Lakshmanjhula, named after the brother of Lord Rama.
