Rishikesh is a city in Uttarakhand, India’s northernmost state, located in the Himalayan foothills alongside the Ganges River. The river is revered, and the city is well-known as a centre for yoga and meditation studies. Temples and ashrams (centres for spiritual studies) line the eastern bank of the river around Swarg Ashram, a traffic-free, alcohol-free, vegetarian enclave upstream from Rishikesh.
