About Rishikesh - The Yoga Capital of the World
Rishikesh is a sacred town in the Indian state of Uttarakhand, located on the banks of the Ganges (Ganga) river at the foothills of the Himalayas. Since the 1960s - famously popularised by the Beatles' 1968 visit to Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's ashram - Rishikesh has been recognised globally as the Yoga Capital of the World. Heartland Yoga is situated in the peaceful Tapovan area of Rishikesh, near Laxman Jhula, and our gallery captures many of the region's most iconic landmarks - from the evening Ganga Aarti at Triveni Ghat to the Neelkanth Mahadev Temple and the tranquil forested trails leading to hidden waterfalls.
