Where I stayed
Sri Ved Nikiten Ashram
Stepped off the train in Haridwar after sleeping for about 5 hours in my A/C chair class train and slogged over to the bus station across and down the street to pick up the local bus to Rishikesh. It left about 5 minutes after I jumped on and we were on our way! The scenery changed from browns and tans to progressively more greenery as we got closer, a few times we crossed the holy river Ganges on our way. Took an auto rickshaw from the bus station to the suspension bridge near town because only pedestrians and two wheel vehicles were allowed from that point onward. Walked across the moving/swaying suspension bridge and gazed at the views of the Ganges, boulders, river rafters, and hills.
