Q: Where is the best location for tourists to stay in Uttarakhand?

Those who want to visit Uttarakhand just to enjoy the scenery and take in the views, you should definitely stay in Rishikesh, which is less crowded than the rest of Uttarakhand. It’s also closer to tourist locations in the great outdoors, so if you’re an adventurer or looking to soak in the sun in these beautiful environments, then this is the perfect place for you. However, if you really want to experience the bustle of the city, then you should stay at Haridwar.

Often referred to as the Devbhumi or Land of the Gods, Uttarakhand is teeming with Hindu temples and pilgrimage sites. Aside from man-made marvels, Uttarakhand is also surrounded by natural wonders like the Himalayas, the Bhabar, and the Terai.

Explore the best of Rishikesh, a city in Uttarakhand, and discover temples, ashrams, waterfalls, and more! Challenge yourself and go on a picturesque trek from Rishikesh to the beautiful Kunjapuri temple and pass through quaint villages, forests, and agricultural lands. While you're there, be sure to make a stop at the breathtaking Neer Ghattu Waterfall for picture perfect views.
