The bungy jumping is very safe which is conducted by "Jumping Heights" a little distance from rishikesh. I had a chat with Martina (the lady in yellow t shirt who are the conductors of the bungy jumping). The whole exhilliration and the life changing moments are the ones when you have to over come your instincts, body reflexes and life long conditioning of not jumping into the mouth of death itself. The money is worth every paisa cause you can close your eyes and relive that moment many more time, every time I imagine the moment I was about to jump, it still set the chill in my spine. Truly if there's a moment in ones life which can be the point you can refer to as your life before that moment and after it, defenitely this would be it. Folks try this out...must experince!!!!!!!!!

When you think India, if you think spicy food, snake charmers, dodging cows, the Taj Mahal, and total chaos- you’re thinking about Northern India. It's an adventure waiting to happen, and will leave you wondering why it only accounts for 1% of world tourism. Join Ricky Moreno as he explores Delhi, Rajasthan, Agra, Rishikesh, and Varanasi. Welcome to Delhi. Say goodbye to your personal space. It’s crowded, it’s overwhelming, and definitely exhausting. One day here can feel like an entire week. The only way you’ll have any fun is to just put down the Purell and join the party. Instead of going straight to Agra to see the Taj Mahal, first I head west to hang with some locals in Rajasthan. Here, the people are welcoming, the desert is sprawling, and the camels command the streets. And it...
To talk to my soul, I made 3 days trip to Rishikesh at the end of September. Rishikesh is a very holy & sacred place in northern India situated in the banks of Ganges. Beautiful green hills, holy Ganga and capital of Yoga & Meditation makes Rishikesh a unique place to visit. It was a very pleasant experience for me. Every time I go to Rishikesh, I feel so peaceful and blessed. When I sit in the banks of holy Ganga mother and beautiful breeze coming over my face takes my heart and thinking somewhere else, it gives me so much positive energy and motivation to live this beautiful life and thankful for being so lucky in this life. In the process of this travel I also met my few student who have been living there practicing their Spirituality & Meditation in Rishikesh. Meeting them gave me ...
