Monkeys meditate too!

by mikeocalla - last update: Sep 7, 2005

Rishikesh is a nice place to escape the mania of Delhi and unwind. The food here is awesome (and purely veggie) and one can sleep at night. It might also be safe to dip in the Ganges here. The water is clear enough and unpstream there are lots of places to have your own stretch of rocks to yourself.

Pros:"Quiter than most places, good food, lots of opportunities to relax or try something new"
Cons:"Gurus try to hustle you into yoga classes and what not... too many braindead hippies trying to show off how spiritual they are by hanging out... why don't they just go to Goa and get it over with?"
In A Nutshell:"Great place. Must go again."
