Rishikesh, also known as the gateway to the Himalayas, is a holy city for Hindus located in the foothills of the Himalaya in northern India. The place will provide you with a wonderful spiritual experience with its temples, religious activities and godly atmosphere. Its scenic beauty amazes one so much that people (even non-Indians) have made this place their home. Rishikesh got its name after Lord Vishnu who appeared, as Lord Rishikesh, to 'Raibhya Rishi', as a result of his tapasya (austerities). In Skanda Purana, this area is known as 'Kubjamrak' since Lord Vishnu appeared under a mango tree. Legends state that Lord Rama did repentance here for killing Ravana, the demon king of Lanka; and Lakshmana, his younger brother, crossed the river Ganga, at a point, where the present 'Lakshman Jhula' bridge stands, using a jute rope bridge. The jute-rope bridge was replaced by iron-rope suspension bridge in 1889, and after it was washed away in the 1924 floods, it was replaced by a stronger present bridge. Even today, the western bank of the bridge has a Lakshmana temple, and across it lies a temple dedicated to Lord Rama; also present near by is a temple of his other brother, Bharata. Ramjhula bridge over the Ganga was made by the Indian government.
