Rishikesh was popularised by the band 'Beatles' when they visited
Maharishi Mahesh Yogi‘s ashram in the 60s and since then travellers from all
over the globe visit the ‘Yoga Capital of the World’ in huge numbers. Some
visit for yoga, some are just looking for a weekend getaway through camping,
some are your adventure seekers trying their hand at river rafting or bungee
jumping and for others, it is a pilgrimage site.
