Ramjhula is situated 3Km north of Rishikesh. It’s a very popular place amongst people coming for religious purposes because it has very known Ashrams. Most known is Geeta Bhawan and Swarg Ashram and these temples are very important in Hindu society and you will see much more commotion here then in Laxmanjhula. You can contact the ashrams for accommodation but if you like nature the Laxmanjhula area is a better choice.

The evening prayer will take about 30 minutes and you can take your camera along with you. The famous restaurant Chotiwala is also in Ramjhula, there actually two of them and it very unclear which is the real one. It is 50 years old now and is very famous for its delicious servings, you will love the taste of food their.
