Sunrise & Sunset Spots
Best views in Rishikesh
🌅 Sunrise
Triveni Ghat
Watch the Ganga glow orange at dawn. Fishermen casting nets, pilgrims bathing — the real Rishikesh.
🌄 Sunset
Ganga Aarti, Triveni Ghat
7pm every evening — priests perform the fire ceremony as the Ganga turns golden. Unforgettable.
Local Tips
Best time: September to November, February to May. Avoid monsoon for rafting
Rafting is not allowed in monsoon (July-August) — rivers are too dangerous
Triveni Ghat Aarti is at 7pm sharp every day — arrive 30 mins early for good spot
Stay on the Tapovan side (near Laxman Jhula) for best cafe and river experience
Beatles Ashram is open 8am-5pm, ₹150 entry — completely worth it
