Rishikesh, India

Rishikesh is located in northern India and considered to be one of the holiest places in India. It is also the yoga capital of India, perhaps the world. The town is built along the Ganges river and there are ghats, basically entrances via steps to the river where you can sit or bathe in its waters. It is very difficult to find meat in this town and impossible to find alcohol. It also completely shuts down by 9p.m. I spent one day there wandering around with a girl from France that I had met on the train, here are some pictures.
The town is full of people, steps, people trying to sell you something, beggars, cows, monkeys, yogis, people who want to be yogis, spiritual and enlightened people, and fake people who act enlightened in order to get money.
