Visiting Surkanda Devi Temple was one of the highlights of my trip to Kanatal! To reach the temple, you’ll need to climb a short stretch of steps, and then you have two options: either take the ropeway (₹225 per person) for a quick ride up, or continue the scenic trek to the top. A quick tip: beware of the mischievous monkeys along the way, they’ve absolutely mastered the art of snatching snacks and bags, so keep your belongings close! 🐒 The temple itself is beautifully maintained, clean, organized, and peaceful. The moment you reach the top, you’re rewarded with a breathtaking panoramic view of the Himalayas that makes every step worth it. You can easily spend hours here soaking in the serenity, admiring the architecture, and just being present in the moment. If you’re anywhere in the Tehri region of Uttarakhand, Surkanda Devi Temple is an absolute must-visit, a perfect blend of spirituality, nature, and scenic beauty. 🌄🙏

One of the Shaktipeeth where Maa Sati's head was said to be fallen. The temple is on a hill with amazing views from all sides. The trek not too long and properly paved can be steep in some places so recommended to take frequent breaks if your not used to the trekking. There is a option for cable cart but it was not operation during the time we visited (Mid Aug). At the top the air feels fresh and very calm.

I went for the evening aarti at Surkanda Devi temple and honestly it was such a peaceful experience. The whole place had this divine energy, and with the cool breeze blowing. The view from the top was just breathtaking – mountains covered in mist and the sky slowly turning golden. When the bells started ringing and the aarti began, it gave me goosebumps. Sitting there, with nature all around and the sound of prayers, it was truly mast and unforgettable

Surkanda Devi Temple, located near Dhanaulti in Uttarakhand, is a revered Hindu shrine and a must-visit for both pilgrims and nature enthusiasts. ​Key Points: ​Spiritual Significance: It's one of the 51 Shakti Peethas, where, according to mythology, the head of Goddess Sati fell after her self-immolation. ​The Trek: The temple is situated at an altitude of approximately 2,757 meters and requires a 2-3 km moderate trek from Kaddukhal village. The path is well-maintained and offers scenic views. ​Ropeway: A ropeway has been built to provide easy access for those who cannot or prefer not to trek. ​Location & Views: The temple is nestled amidst dense forests of deodar, rhododendron, and oak, providing stunning panoramic views of the Himalayan peaks, including Chaukhamba and Nanda Devi. ​Best Time to Visit: The ideal time is during the summer (April to June) and autumn (September to November) for pleasant weather and clear views.

You can also explore places like Tehri Dam and various adventure activities in the region.

This is my once in a lifetime experience getting to the feet of Mata Surkanda Devi at 10000 ft above. There are two ways to reach the Temple. Trekking and Ropeway. We took ropeway as we were with Senior Citizens. Also the trekking is difficult. Taking Ropeway is also time saving. It's so peaceful above and literally above the clouds. Amazing experience.

Every morning view start with this famous and worshiped temple as I open my main door. Because as I look straight to the beautiful view I see the mountain on which this beautiful and famous temple situated. I often visit this place a year or 2 from my childhood. Foreigners and many other states people frequently visit this place because it's nearest to mussoorie the overrated place of uttarakhand and nearest to my beautiful town chamma or chamba tehri garhwal uttarakhand.

This temple is so beautiful; I just love going there. It has such a calming vibe, and sitting to meditate feels incredibly peaceful. Plus, the view from the temple's location is mesmerizing—you can even get a glimpse of the Himalayas! It's also one of the Shaktipeeths, and for those who can't walk, there's an affordable ropeway. It's definitely a must-visit if you live nearby and have the time.

Looking for the perfect spot to relax a while around the Gange river, then this is something I would suggest. Just near the Ram Ghula, you would find the Ganga Mandir. Have the darshan and you would find the place where I had captured this photo.

Nice view but need well mantenance

Very peaceful place

Beautiful place

Serene , Calm and Believe

Ram Jhula is one of the most visited places in Rishikesh. It's the way to Famous Ashrams like Parmarth Niketan, Geeta Bhawan, Beatles Ashram. Also you can go to taxi stand for Neelkanth Mahadev and also paidal marg for the same. It has beautiful ghats for Maa Ganga Snan. Very scenic in evening and night. Also breeze in the night on this bridge is very calm and serene. Best month to visit Rishikesh and Ram Jhula is October and November. Please do not litter on these Holy places. Be kind to all. Highly Recommended. Thanks

I went ther recently with my friends to enjoy the weekend. We booked our hotel near ramjhula to enjoy the ganga view,also rafting and more adventure activities. As we know about ramjhula Ram Jhula is a long hanging bridge in Rishikesh built over the holy Ganga River. It connects two sides of the town and is used by people walking, cycling, and visiting temples. When you stand on the bridge, you can see the clear water, green mountains, and colorful boats. The wind feels cool and fresh. Many tourists come here every day to enjoy the calm environment. In the evening, the lights around the bridge make it look even more beautiful and peaceful. It is a famous place to visit.

The most bustling place in Rishikesh where you need to visit once you visit Rishikesh. It's the suspension bridge and most of the famous ashrams are situated on either side of the Ganges once you cross the bridge. You can enjoy boating in the Ganges also, which is near this suspension bridge. There are plenty of eateries nearby where you can have lunch or quick bites. Visit with adequate amount of time for optimum enjoyment.

Ram Jhula in Rishikesh is truly one of the most beautiful and iconic places in the city. While it’s charming at any time of day, if you really want to experience its true beauty and peaceful vibe, visit after 8:30 or 9:00 PM. During the evening, the area can get quite crowded with pilgrims and tourists, but at night, the rush fades away, and you can enjoy the calm, soothing atmosphere by the Ganga River and the ghats. The illuminated bridge reflecting on the water looks absolutely magical — it’s a sight to remember. 🌙 The area feels completely safe for women and families, as police patrols are active and vigilant even late at night. There are no miscreants or disturbances, making it a peaceful place to stroll, sit by the river, or simply absorb the serene energy of Rishikesh. If you love quiet moments, twinkling lights, and the sound of flowing water, Ram Jhula at night will surely touch your heart. 💛

Since the closure of Laxman Jhulla to vehicular traffic, this iconic suspension bridge has become a bustling thoroughfare for both pedestrians and bikers. At any given time, the bridge is adorned with a lively crowd, creating an energetic atmosphere. The view from the bridge, overlooking the majestic Ganga River and the captivating sight of rafting activities below, adds to its charm. Approaching the Ramjhulla parking side, visitors are treated to a picturesque view of the Ganges. Toward the end of the bridge, on the left-hand side, lies Goa Beach, offering a serene escape along the riverbank. Crossing the Jhulla and continuing on the left, one encounters the road leading to Laxman Jhulla. On the right side, the area is adorned with renowned tourist destinations, predominantly ashrams such as Parmarth Niketan, Swargashram, and Sivanand. Notably, the famous Chotiwala restaurants are also situated on this side, providing a taste of local cuisine. The allure of Ram Jhulla is further heightened during the evening when the entire structure is illuminated, casting a warm glow across the surroundings. This nightly transformation enhances the bridge's beauty, creating a captivating ambiance that draws visitors to witness the enchanting play of lights against the backdrop of the flowing Ganga River. Ram Jhulla stands not only as a functional crossing but also as a symbol of vibrancy and charm in the heart of Rishikesh. Significance & Function Spiritual Hub: Connects important spiritual centers like Sivananda Ashram and Swargashram, making it a vital crossing point for devotees. Tourist Attraction: A major landmark that provides panoramic views of the Ganges, the Himalayan foothills, and the surrounding temples. Access to Ashrams: Provides easy access to ashrams and other religious sites situated along its banks. What to Do There Walk or Cycle: Cross the bridge on foot or bicycle to enjoy the views and the serene atmosphere. Explore Markets: Browse the small markets at both ends of the bridge, offering souvenirs, local handicrafts, and religious items. Visit Ashrams: Discover the spiritual essence of Rishikesh by visiting the temples and ashrams that line the bridge. Photography: Capture the picturesque scenery of the river, mountains, and the bridge itself.

Nice experience, Devine place, One can visit on weekends. When you will just cross Ram Jhula, turn left side (instead of right)100 meter, a beautiful view is waiting for you.you will find benches on the bank of Ganga or you go down on sand beach. Opposite to benches economic and good guest houses are available @₹700-₹3500. If you want go to some crowded place or market then turn right from Ram Jhula. There you may participate in ganga aarti, shoping, fooding, tea, coffee, etc. Yes, walking around is nice, when you reach Laxman jhula must enjoy Honey-ginger lemon tea.

Hanging bridge joints left bank of Ganga River to Right bank where Swargashram is situated. In Rishikesh it's about 500 metres long and 10 feet width. Two wheelers are strictly prohibited on this way.At the Rishikesh, when we reached at Ram Jhula,a group of 6-7 persons comes from Canada n leaded by Sandra,introduced by her to all members and talk 👄 😀 😄 😉 about their good and bitter experience in Haridwar and Rishikesh. Very calm, funny and pleasant group, so we share our journey n memories with them.

★★★★★ / 🌿 “A Timeless Melody of Peace, Art & Nature in Rishikesh!” 🌿 The Beatles Ashram (Chaurasi Kutiya) in Rishikesh is not just a historic spot — it’s a soulful retreat that beautifully blends nature, art, and the lingering legacy of music. Once home to Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s ashram, where The Beatles stayed in 1968 and composed many of their iconic songs, this place still echoes with creativity and serenity. Nestled on the banks of the Ganga and embraced by the Rajaji Tiger Reserve, the ashram has an otherworldly calm. Walking through its abandoned meditation huts, crumbling stone pathways, and moss-covered walls feels like stepping into a peaceful time capsule. The silence here is profound — you hear the wind in the trees, birdsong, and your own footsteps — offering a rare space for reflection and stillness. ⸻ 🌟 Highlights of the Experience • Historic Legacy: Knowing that The Beatles, along with other artists and seekers, meditated and created music here adds a magical energy to the visit. Fans of the band will feel the nostalgia instantly. • Street-Art & Graffiti: The ashram walls are covered with vibrant murals and Beatles-inspired artwork by international artists. Every corner feels like a living gallery that celebrates music and peace. • Meditation Huts (Chaurasi Kutiya): These dome-shaped stone huts are scattered throughout the ashram. Exploring them is fascinating — they feel raw yet inviting, and many still have an aura of tranquility. • Nature & Scenery: The ashram is surrounded by lush forests and offers glimpses of the Ganges. The air feels fresh, and the natural silence makes it a rejuvenating experience. • Peaceful Vibe: Despite being a popular tourist site, the ashram retains its calm energy. It’s a wonderful place for meditation, photography, or simply sitting under a tree and soaking in the moment. ⸻ 📝 Practical Details • Entry: There’s a nominal entry fee (for both Indian and international visitors) which is worth it for the well-maintained paths and restored sections. • Best Time to Visit: Early morning or late afternoon — the light is softer, the air is cooler, and it’s less crowded. • Duration: Ideally set aside 1.5 to 2 hours to walk, explore, and sit quietly. • Photography: The combination of ruins, murals, forest, and domes makes this a paradise for photographers. • Walkability: Expect a lot of walking inside; wear comfortable shoes as paths can be uneven. • Safety: The site feels safe and secure; there’s a forest vibe but nothing to worry about during visiting hours. ⸻ 💭 Final Thoughts The Beatles Ashram is more than a tourist destination — it’s a soulful pause in the rush of travel. Whether you come for its history, its art, or its quiet connection to nature, you leave feeling a little lighter and more inspired. ⭐ Overall: A must-visit in Rishikesh — perfect for music lovers, history buffs, meditators, artists, or anyone seeking peace amidst nature’s charm. ✨ Review by @the_solo_wanderer_ For more soulful journeys and untold stories, search me on Instagram 🌿📸

Recommended visit time needed approx 2hrs. Costs for foreigners is 1200 rupi. Located in a white corner of the mountain. Very interesting to see where the Beatles spent some time connecting to there inner self escaping all the worldly noise. You just walk around and feel the peace. Birds chirping. You see the bungalow where the Beatles stayed. You see a small gallery with a bunch of photos of the Beatles in the ashram. There is a Small canteen where you can buy drinks and lunch.

I finally visited this place on my third trip to Rishikesh. I had high expectations, but I left a bit disappointed. The road leading to the ashram is quite tricky and feels more like off-roading. There are no proper guidelines or directions about where to go first—you just end up wandering around the ashram. The place is huge, and the meditation domes made from river stones are quite interesting. Apart from that, there’s a small gallery near the canteen displaying photos from when the Beatles actually visited the ashram. Overall, I feel the ₹200 entry fee isn’t justified. With better maintenance and proper guidance, the experience would definitely be worth it.

The Beatles Ashram, Rishikesh A peaceful nature trail ideal for meditation and reconnecting with yourself. The walk through the woods is scenic and soothing, though the old huts (“kutiyas”) are now poorly maintained. The ticket feels slightly overpriced, but the calm aura and greenery make up for it. Don’t miss the canteen’s pahadi wali Maggi! 🍃 Wear comfy shoes and watch out for monkeys — a lovely spot for a long, mindful walk in nature.

The ruins of an old ashram in Rishikesh. You can spent around 2 hours to see it around. The stone caves for medition built of the hand picked pebbles from Ganga river is the highlight here. It's not well maintained though. It's part of s tiger reserve now.

Beautiful place. You will get some amazing pictures in your gallery after the visit. Prefer the winter season to enjoy it more.little huts looks beautiful and view of ganga river is good. Full network area , washroom at entry point and drinking water too. Carry your aadhar card for entry .

It's actually the chauras kutiya near Janki Jhula , and timings are till 3pm so one should know this everywhere it's mentioned incorrect, which wasted our time. Also there is a very- damn- best - beautiful view point at the end of the trail. You will reach there just go till the last. Bring physical ids, adhaar and student id.

I have vitnessed almost all famous aartis of GANGAJI at Haridwar and Rishikesh during the trip but Aarti at Triveni Ghat is One of the best Gangaji Aarti I have. View of Sunset is just refreshing. And only Aarti where everyone is allowed to do Aarti at Free of cost by the management. Management themselves provide Aarti thalis to many people and they shares thalis with each other so each and everyone can enjoy and participate at Aarti. And story doesn't ends here, Bhajan starts after Aarti and surely you will get goosebumps if you have vitnessed the joy. In short don't miss it if you are visiting Haridwar and Rishikesh.

Truly one of the best spiritual experiences of my life. Felt divine and calm attending the Ganga Aarti here. Too much crowded and if you need good places to sit, consider reaching there early. After Ganga Aarti you can sit at the ghats enjoying the peace and serenity.

Triveni Ghat in Rishikesh is a beautiful and peaceful place to experience the true spirit of the Ganga. The atmosphere here is calm in the mornings and truly divine during the evening Ganga Aarti. Watching the lamps floating on the river with the sound of chants feels magical. The area is well-maintained, and you can sit by the river to relax or take a holy dip. It’s one of those places where you feel peace and positivity all around. A must-visit spot for anyone traveling to Rishikesh.

Triveni Ghat is a truly spiritual and beautiful destination in Rishikesh. The evening Ganga Aarti is mesmerizing, with soulful chants and vibrant rituals that create an uplifting atmosphere. Sitting by the banks of the Ganges surrounded by mountains, you feel tremendous peace and positive energy. It can get crowded during the Aarti, so arrive early to get a good spot. The whole experience — from the holy dip in the river to the aarti and the nearby temples — makes Triveni Ghat a must-visit for anyone seeking serenity and divine vibes in Rishikesh.

Its a amazing experience to see ganga aarti there. Ghat is also good and clean. Maybe ut could be little bit crowded depending on any special occasion. But still it look peaceful.

Well managed. Entry is started at 5 pm for the Arti at 6 pm. Orderly queue is started at 5. People pay to offer 'special' puja, and they're allowed to/ are conducted fpr puja before the Aarti begins. It's well choreographed. Quite a spectacle.

A very beautiful place to be if you are spiritual. Usually a must visit when the Ganga Aarti happens. Usually during winters the Aarti happens at 5.30pm however it's important that you reach there 20 minutes earlier to get the front seats.

It is a serene place to relax and have a great time with your family and friends. There are small and not so difficult trails you can walk to enjoy the artistic view of nature around. The pine trees and flowers in the park are really beautiful. Please do not pluck flowers and do not litter. 🙏 It requires at least 1 hour to see around but you can spend more time. The ticket is priced at Rs 50 for adults. It has these amenities.. Toilets Dustbins Benches to sit and relax Swing Sheds Some paid adventure activities for kids in a small area. Parking is outside in the open area at a safe distance from the main road. There are eateries outside where you can get plenty of food options to choose from. Enjoy the weather and scenery.

50₹ ticket for one adult. 25₹ ticket for one child below 9 year. It is a one time park location if you are coming here first time. There are some little activities here which has separate ticket. Green place filled with trees. A Hidden Gem for Nature Lovers! Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful — this place is truly a must-visit for anyone who enjoys nature, peace, and panoramic views. I highly recommend bringing a water bottle with you — and please, take it back with you. Let’s help keep this beautiful spot clean and trash-free for everyone to enjoy. The walk is simple and serene, perfect for a relaxing stroll with your loved ones. It’s a great place to talk, unwind, and reconnect with nature. If you’re into birdwatching, do a little research beforehand! You can spot a variety of birds here, and I personally use the Merlin app for identification — it makes the experience even more rewarding. In spring (March-April), the flowers are in full bloom, making the area look absolutely magical. The views of the snow-capped mountains are breathtaking and offer amazing photo opportunities. I suggest packing some tea or light snacks and turning your visit into a peaceful picnic. Afternoon or early evening is the best time to visit for both good lighting and cooler weather. If you enjoy being in a forest-like setting, you will absolutely love this place. Highly recommended for a short escape into nature!

A beautiful garden eco park a must visit in dhanolti. Nice and serene calm place to spend time with families/ couples. It's a great place to just relax and to enjoy through stunning views of Himalayas.

Visiting Eco Park in Dhanaulti was an absolutely wonderful experience! The place is surrounded by lush greenery, and the peaceful atmosphere makes it perfect for a relaxing getaway from the city chaos. What I loved the most was that it’s not crowded at all, giving you the chance to truly enjoy nature at your own pace. It's a great spot for a picnic with family and kids—there’s plenty of open space, fresh air, and beautiful walking trails. The park is also very well maintained, which adds to the overall pleasant experience. Whether you’re visiting with friends, family, or just looking for some quiet time in nature, Eco Park in Dhanaulti is a hidden gem worth exploring. Highly recommended! 🌿💚

My experience at Eco Park Dhanaulti was truly wonderful. The park's natural beauty, coupled with its adventure activities and serene atmosphere, makes it a must-visit destination in Dhanaulti.

Eco Park in Dhanaulti is a must if you're around—whether you're staying in Dhanaulti or visiting from Mussoorie. It’s super peaceful, full of greenery and flowers, and just a great spot to take a walk and chill in nature. Plus, it’s perfect for clicking some great photos. It's definitely worth a stop!

This place is truly lovely and captivating, giving the impression of being a sage's ashram from the Styug era. Children are taught about their culture and Sanatana here.

shantikun Retreat Experience 🌿✨ In June, we visited Shantikun with our family and stayed for around 4 days. The environment was incredibly peaceful and serene, offering us a much-needed break from the hustle of daily life. 🌸 The people there were warm, kind, and spoke with such love and respect—it truly felt like a spiritual home. During our stay, we participated in Sharamdaan (voluntary service), took part in a sacred Hawan (fire ritual) 🔥, and even received Diksha (spiritual initiation), which made the experience deeply meaningful and memorable. 🙏 Overall, it was a soul-refreshing journey filled with positivity and tranquility. 🌞

It was such a great feeling of peace and happiness of mind, in the premises of Shantikunj. Full of greeneries and cleanliness inside the campus. A must visit for anyone visiting Haridwar. Only the entry process needs to be modernized. Digitized entry will make the entry process faster and smoother.

One of the worst places I have visited in my life, Its name should be Ashanti kunj. Reason - 1.Mannerless guards and other people. 2. Unheignic rooms or you can say halls. 3. Poor planning, you have to borrow Blanket and mattress from a central place and carry to your hall. 4. You can't buy water bottle from 9 PM itself ,u need to fill from water coolers. 5. No reason to stay here except free of cost , technically u should leave ur respect aside if u want to stay here. This place is not for young person who went to enjoy Haridwar, its for those who are only spiritual person. There buildings are clean but rooms were very unheignic and filled with manner less people. Kindly don't take your kids to this worst place, stay safe and take a good Hotel or refer some good and reputed Ashram if you want to live in ashram only.

Shantikunj Haridwar is more than just an ashram; it's a sanctuary of peace, spirituality, and selfless service that leaves a lasting positive impression. From the moment you step onto its well-maintained grounds, a palpable sense of tranquility washes over you, a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The serene atmosphere, coupled with the gentle chanting and the fragrance of incense, creates an environment conducive to introspection and inner peace. The teachings and philosophy of Gayatri Pariwar, which are at the heart of Shantikunj, resonate deeply with their emphasis on holistic well-being, ethical living, and selfless service. Participating in the daily yagnas is a powerful and uplifting experience, fostering a sense of community and spiritual connection. The volunteers, dedicated to their seva (selfless service), embody the spirit of the ashram, always ready with a helping hand and a warm smile. Beyond the spiritual aspects, Shantikunj also offers practical avenues for personal growth and well-being. The various workshops and training programs on topics like stress management, yoga, and meditation are invaluable. The well-organized and clean accommodation, along with the simple yet nourishing food, further contribute to a comfortable and conducive stay. What truly sets Shantikunj apart is its unwavering commitment to social welfare and the upliftment of society through initiatives in education, health, and environmental conservation. Witnessing this dedication firsthand is both inspiring and humbling. A visit to Shantikunj is not just a retreat; it's an enriching experience that rejuvenates the mind, body, and soul, leaving you with a renewed sense of purpose and positivity. It's a place where you can truly connect with yourself and the divine.

We visited Maa Chandi Devi Temple and had a wonderful spiritual and scenic experience. We went up using the ropeway, which was truly enjoyable — the short 5-minute ride offered beautiful views of the mountains and the surrounding greenery. It felt peaceful and refreshing. After reaching the top, we took the blessings of Maa Chandi Devi, and also visited the nearby Hanuman, Anjana Mata, and Santoshi Mata temples. The place has a divine atmosphere, and the entire visit felt serene and fulfilling. Overall, it’s a must-visit place for both spiritual seekers and nature lovers. The combination of the ropeway ride and the temple’s peaceful ambiance makes it a memorable experience.

Ma Chandi Devi Mandir, located on the beautiful Neel Parvat hill in Haridwar, is one of the most sacred and enchanting temples in Uttarakhand. Dedicated to Goddess Chandi Devi, this temple is not only a significant spiritual destination but also a place that fills the heart with peace and devotion. According to mythology, the temple marks the site where Goddess Chandi defeated the demons Chanda and Munda, symbolizing the victory of good over evil. The journey to the temple itself is memorable. Devotees can either trek up the hill or take the ropeway (Udan Khatola), which is an experience in itself. The ropeway offers a magnificent panoramic view of the Ganga River, the lush green forests, and the entire city of Haridwar. As you ascend, the cool breeze and scenic beauty make the ride truly mesmerizing. It feels as if you’re floating above nature’s divine canvas. The temple premises are clean, well-maintained, and radiate positive energy. The aura of the Goddess, combined with the chants of devotees, creates a deeply spiritual atmosphere. Visiting Ma Chandi Devi Mandir is not just a religious trip—it’s a soulful experience that connects you with faith, nature, and inner peace. A must-visit place for anyone coming to Haridwar.

The ropeway to Chandi Devi Temple offers stunning aerial views of Haridwar, the Ganga river, and surrounding hills. The ride is smooth, safe, and takes just a few minutes to reach the top. A great experience for all age groups and totally worth it for the scenic views alone.

The temple is peaceful and worth visiting, but the overall management is poor. Ropeway waiting time is 1–2 hours and the area is overcrowded. Biggest issue is returning without your own vehicle — auto drivers refuse to go unless their big autos are full, making tourists wait for hours. Strongly recommend visiting only if you have your own transport. We recently visited Chandi Devi Temple in Haridwar and while the temple itself is serene and spiritually uplifting, the overall experience left us disappointed due to poor management around the visit. To reach the temple, you need to take the tram (ropeway) service, but the waiting time is extremely long — anywhere between 1–2 hours. The starting point for the tram is overcrowded, which makes the wait even more uncomfortable. There are some small shops for souvenirs, snacks, and games, but that doesn’t balance the chaos. Once you reach the top, there is a small hike via stairway to the temple. The stairs are divided into two sides — one for going up (which is in good condition) and one for coming down (which is poorly maintained and quite difficult to walk on). All of this could still be manageable, but the biggest problem starts when you have to return to your hotel or onward destination without your own vehicle. The auto drivers outside act like goons — they refuse to take passengers unless their large autos are filled completely, or you hire the entire vehicle even if you’re a single person. When I asked small auto drivers, they said they’re afraid of the big ones as they get threatened or beaten if they pick up customers from there. We ended up waiting more than an hour just to get back, which completely ruined the experience. The temple is worth visiting, but I strongly recommend going with your own vehicle. The authorities really need to step in and resolve this transportation issue, as it’s making tourists suffer unnecessarily.

This temple is located on Alaknanda river. This temple is surrounded by mountains and water it makes more beautiful and attractive.As per mythology the goddess changes her form three times a day. Dhari Devi is considered the guardian and protector of the Char Dham pilgrimage.

Its famous temple in Kumbha nagri Haridwar.. Mata chandi devi Temple located in Mountains.. Rope way also available.. Best Experience.. Must visit If you are in Haridwar..

Nice place and touch my heart

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Place to find peace......surrounded by greenery...trees.....cool place

Temple River

Nice wark.... 💯

Beautifully located on the top of the mountain with Har Ki Pouri beneath it. The road ,if you go walking, is all winding and will take a long time to reach the top. There is cable car service which is pretty crowded but well organised and takes you up in minutes. The view on the way up or down is awesome, with Ganga stretching out for a very very long distance, the Har Ki Pouri, the bridges, etc you can see and the majestic mountains surrounding the area. The temple was quite crowded and people were unruly pushing and pulling, no crowd control as such. Even the darshan was difficult as people were pushing from the back. Apart from the crowd control rest is good. Jai maa Mansa Devi. 🙏

mansadevi Temple is a peaceful and beautiful place in Haridwar. The view from the top is really nice and you can go by ropeway or by walking. Water and sitting facilities are available at almost every turn which helps a lot while climbing. No photography is allowed inside the temple and there are no entry charges. A proper shoe stand is also available. The temple feels very spiritual and calm.

Mansa Devi Temple in Haridwar is one of the most popular and sacred temples, beautifully located on the Shivalik hills overlooking the Ganga and Har Ki Pauri. Devotees can reach the temple either by walking on the winding path or by using the ropeway (Udan Khatola), which offers a stunning aerial view of the city and river. The temple gets quite crowded, especially during festivals, but the atmosphere remains deeply spiritual. Facilities like water points and sitting areas are available. Photography isn’t allowed inside. A must-visit for peace and divine blessings.

✨ Beautiful and peaceful experience at Maa Mansa Devi Temple. The temple is very well-maintained, and the darshan was smooth with no waiting time. The surroundings felt serene, and the overall vibe was truly divine. A must-visit for anyone coming to Haridwar. Highly recommended for a calm and spiritually uplifting experience. 🙏✨

The cable car was a very good experience and offered good views. Keep hold of the ticket if you buy return. The temple complex is very cramped and offers no outside areas (unless you walk up??) The cable car waiting area was not full and the snack outlets in the temple were not open ,I assume it was a less than busy time so I dread to think how claustrophobic it would be when super busy! Shoe stand at entrance. Negotiating each little temple section without being dragged in easier as a westerner but do keep an eye on the rest of the group as we waited ages for" Tail End Charlie "at the the shoe stand on the way out!!

The temple is located on top of a hill accessed by a ropeway. There is some 15 minutes wait for the ropeway on crowded days. The charges are ₹190 per person and you can book ropeway for Chandi Devi temple too at a discounted package rate here. There is a sloping walkway also available. The views from the ropeway is breathtaking, but the approach to it is through narrow lanes in between houses and dilapidated structures. The Q system was good till the final steps to the temple. Then it became crowded and unruly, maybe due to Diwali week. You can buy some Prasad along the Queue which will be offered to the Goddess and given back. There is a place to keep footwear after the ropeway ride.

The mansa devi trek is pure bliss! Amazing views and a perfect trail." ​"Loved every step! The view from Maa mansa devi s absolutely worth the climb. 6/10 track!" ​"Incredible track, incredible view! Feeling blessed at Maa mansa devi." ​"This trail has the best line and the best sights! Truly happy with the mansa Devi Darshan."

Where Divinity Meets Eternity – Daksheswar Mahadev Temple, Kankhal In the serene heart of Kankhal, Haridwar, lies Daksheswar Mahadev Temple — more than just a temple, it is a place where myth and divinity quietly breathe as one. This sacred site holds deep significance in Hindu mythology, marking the place where King Daksha performed his yajna and where Goddess Sati, overcome with grief and devotion, surrendered herself to the sacred fire. The temple echoes the divine tale of Lord Shiva’s sorrow, the creation of Virbhadra, and the eternal love between Shiva and Sati — a story of cosmic energy, sacrifice, and spiritual union. Even today, the energy here is palpable — peaceful yet deeply powerful. As you walk through the temple’s corridors, you don’t just witness devotion… you feel it. The gentle chimes of the bells, the fragrance of incense, and the chants in the air transport you to another realm. It’s a place where time slows down, where the heart feels light, and where the spirit quietly bows. A must-visit for every spiritual traveler, devotee, or seeker of divine peace. Daksheswar Mahadev Temple is not just a destination — it’s a divine moment carved into the heart of Haridwar.

This is a good 3 Star (Premium) property right at the entrance of mall road. Serves nice clean rooms with sit outs and balconies, Valley view from the top floors.

Come here for view... sit in the veranda & sip your coffee or drink. Clean & hygienic stay. Good food. Great Hospitality & very friendly staff especially at the resturant (he will serve u with a big smile & will make sure you go with full tummy. Lovely person) The hotel is at walking distance from Mall Road.

This is a completely useless hotel. We visited this hotel during our college trip. We called housekeeping 2 to 4 times. No one came. We had to pay extra for heater. only view was good. In taps even after turning geeser hot water was not there. So much water problem. Noone comes to clean room even after calling control desk.

I was very pleased with my stay at the Stayz Clark’s Inn, Mussoorie. What impressed me most is that they managed expectations very well at the time of booking with a very frank description that does not over promise. I must credit the person who is at the helm of charge for running this place efficiently with motivated staff ~ Gurmeet Sood (I hope I got his name right) Excellent service was provided

Rooms are not maintained but the location of property is perfect.

Great place for family and friends for holiday stay i loved it

Nice hotel to stay ,location is good restaurant services is excellent and enjoyed a lot 👍🏼

Robber’s Cave in Dehradun is a naturally beautiful spot—a narrow gorge with a stream running through it—but honestly, it didn’t feel as peaceful as I’d hoped. The place was overcrowded, which took away from its natural charm and made it hard to enjoy the serene vibe I was expecting. The rock formations and cold water are impressive, and it could be a lovely experience if you manage to go at a quiet time. But if you’re looking for a calm, reflective escape or somewhere to just breathe and soak in nature, this isn’t the best choice on busy days

After spending days in the hills, visiting Gucchipani felt like a refreshing little adventure. The place is known for its natural cave formation where a cold stream flows right through the rocks — and walking barefoot in that crystal-clear water is pure fun. As soon as I entered the narrow cave, the temperature dropped and the sound of running water echoed beautifully. Sunlight peeking through the gaps above created a magical vibe. It’s not a long trek, but every step inside feels like walking into nature’s own secret tunnel. The water was icy cold — perfect to beat the heat — and it was amazing to just sit near the waterfall at the end, dip your feet, and let the calmness sink in. Outside, there are a few small cafes serving Maggi, chai, and pakoras — the perfect mountain snack combo after the walk.

The crowd ruined the experience as there was hardly any space to truly appreciate its beauty. The cave was overcrowded, and the water flow was minimal—made worse by the number of people, making even the dirty water hard to see. The ticket price is ₹30 per person. It’s better to go on foot, as the route is not suitable for cars or other vehicles. To enjoy it properly, avoid visiting on weekends or during rainy days.

A beautiful and unique spot in Dehradun! Robbers Cave (Guchhu Pani) is perfect if you enjoy nature and a bit of adventure. Walking through the cold stream between high rock walls is an amazing experience — super refreshing, especially in summer. The place is easy to reach and has basic facilities like changing rooms, lockers, and food stalls nearby. However, it can get quite crowded on weekends and cleanliness could be better. Try to visit early morning for a calmer vibe. Avoid going during heavy rains as the water level rises quickly. Overall, a must-visit place for a short getaway or a fun day with friends and family.

It’s a good natural place to visit in Dehradun. You can walk through the natural caves in the water and if you keep walking in the end you get of caves but can still walk with the stream. There are some spots to jump in and play in the water. Near the entrance there are so many shops selling swim clothes, renting flip flops and providing locker and changing room service. It’s very popular place and hence very crowded. There is plenty of parking space but since it gets crowded it can hard to find a parking spot. I would suggest coming early in the morning to avoid the crowds and also have enough time to explore. The river can be dangerous and is prone to flash floods. Be careful in rainy season and follow the advice of the staff.

It's a very beautiful & amazing place to hang out with your loved ones. Once you enter you'll be mesmerized by it's scenery & you can take dive into the waterfalls. The ticket price is 35rs for adults but the drawback is they only accept cash no option for online, so you better carry the loose money. Entry was smooth as we went there early so there was no rush as such. You have to wear slippers because of the waterfalls. You can rent the slippers as there were many sellers. The best time to visit there is summers. Hope you all find this helpful 🙏 🙏

A must-visit place in Dehradun! Gucchupani (Robber’s Cave) is a truly unique spot where you can walk barefoot through cool, flowing water between beautiful natural rock formations. The whole experience feels refreshing and adventurous at the same time. The water is crystal clear, and the surroundings are calm, making it a perfect escape from city life. It’s best to visit in the morning or late afternoon when it’s less crowded. Carry an extra pair of clothes and slippers, as you’ll definitely want to wade through the stream. There are also small eateries nearby for snacks and tea. Overall, a peaceful and fun experience with family or friends — highly recommended if you’re in Dehradun!

Tapkeshwar Mahadev Mandir is truly a sacred gem in Dehradun. Nestled inside a natural cave, the temple offers a divine experience — the continuous dripping of water on the Shiva Linga feels magical. You can also enjoy the nearby stream and scenic beauty around the temple. A visit here fills you with peace and positivity. 🙏🕉️

Surrounded by greenery and built around a natural cave, the temple has a calming atmosphere .The continuous water droplets falling on the Shiva Linga adds a unique, serene charm. The walk down to the temple is beautiful, and the sound of the flowing river nearby makes the whole experience even more soothing. The cave itself is cool and naturally lit, giving it a sacred and ancient feel.

It's just a divine experience for the spiritual seekers!! The temple is present amidst the panorama of caves, the fiercely flowing "Asan" river by its side and many more pictures and idols of religious and spiritual significance. This temple is basically dedicated to Mahadev and is named after the fact that the water droplets fall continuously from the roof inside the cave directly on the Shiva Linga (the symbolic of Mahadev); hence the name goes Baba Tapkeshwar!! A must visit devotional site for seeking blessings of Mahadev!! Har Har Mahadev!! Baba Tapkeshwar sabke upar apni kripa drishti banaye rakhe!!🔱📿🙏❤️

Visited Tapkeshwar Mahadev Temple in Dehradun — truly a divine experience where one can feel real peace and spiritual energy all around. The temple is well-managed and beautifully maintained, offering a sense of calm away from the city’s noise. However, cleanliness can be improved a bit to make the experience even better. Overall, a must-visit place for anyone seeking peace and blessings.

It’s truly a divine experience for every spiritual seeker! The temple is nestled amidst majestic caves, with the fiercely flowing Asan River adding to its serenity and power. The entire atmosphere feels sacred — surrounded by spiritual idols and symbols that radiate peace and devotion. 🕉️ This ancient temple is dedicated to Lord Mahadev (Shiva). It is named “Baba Tapkeshwar” because water droplets continuously fall from the cave’s roof directly onto the Shiva Linga — symbolizing the eternal blessing of Mahadev Himself. Visiting this place fills your heart with a sense of calm, purity, and deep devotion. Truly, a must-visit for all devotees seeking the divine grace of Mahadev.

One of the best place in dehradun. The calm & soothing environment. Best place for meditation. The aroma & sound of water stream makes you forgot all your tensions. Along with Mahadev temple Maa Vaishno devi cave is there & Huge statue of Bajrang Bali. River is clean yet avoid stepping in it. Go with your family, with your friends or even alone. You can directly book auto or cab to be here. Om Namah Shivay

Great place for devotional visitors. Has a large parking spot in an open ground and a lift is there to bring people to and from ground area. ##Caution for 4 wheelers## Google maps shows incorrect way to the temple , from near ShuttleZone Badminton and HM Gate Garhi Cantt. The road ahead is extremely narrow and it is instead recommended to go from Tapkeshwar road from Garhi chowk instead. ##### There are around 3 distinct temples in the area. It was heavily damaged in sep-oct 2025 floods but temporary and secure bridges have been built to navigate and renovation is ongoing without hindrance to visitors (Nov 2025). The two cave like temples are in natural (or probably natural like) caves and require ducking and slight crawling.

A haven..Lush greenery, serene silence, and endless walking roads. Cycled to the majestic main building,which was classic explored hidden forest trails and enjoyed bird watching. A nature lover's paradise. Perfect spot for peaceful walks, cycling and connecting with nature. Highly recommended for a refreshing escape from the city's chaos.

10/10 place. I went there for just hanging out. The weather inside is amazing. Beautiful scenery. You can roam around the whole place. Imagine how the movies were shot there. See the rich history of the building. The pictures I shot were pure gold. There is also a ticket to enter of ₹25 and I suggest you to take your own personal vehicle there but it is not a necessity.

It was an unexpected but mesmerizing visit we went Walked a little but the buildings caught my attention that was something Specially museums are very attractive and well decorated with history and past of country's forestry and people life in forest

Visited FRI Dehradun yesterday during the rainy weather and it felt absolutely magical. The lush green lawns, the grand colonial architecture, and the mountains in the backdrop create a cinematic vibe. Took some great photos on the open ground it’s the kind of place that makes you pause and just enjoy the moment. If you're ever in Dehradun, FRI is a must-visit

Very beautiful and historical architecture. This is an colonial era institution for forest research and education. It has six museums based on 6 different fields of forest research. This institution is situated at Dehradun, Uttarakhand. This is surrounded by background of Himalayan mountains with well maintained lush green landscape

It is a quite place; roads are beautiful and it’s safe to because every corner there is guard. And also have entry fee for bike or car you can take that inside that FRI. Take beautiful pictures.

architecture marvel by britishers that's spread across almost 2000 acres with lush greens kind a picnic spot with good maintenance it's having a canteen in it and a museum

I visited Paonta Sahib Gurudwara recently, and it was truly a peaceful and uplifting experience. The location is right beside the Yamuna River, offering a beautiful scenic view and a calming atmosphere. The Gurudwara itself is very clean, well-maintained, and full of spiritual energy. If you’re looking for a spiritual escape, or even just a calm and meaningful break from routine life, Paonta Sahib is definitely worth the visit. Highly recommended for both devotees and travelers. 🙏

Gurdwara Shri Paonta Sahib is a peaceful and spiritually uplifting destination..A visit here is highly recommended for anyone traveling to Himachal Pradesh or nearby regions. The historical significance of Guru Gobind Singh Ji’s stay at this sacred site adds deep meaning to the experience. The riverfront next to the Gurdwara is breathtaking — watching the Yamuna flow gently by enhances the spiritual ambiance. Inside the premises, a museum showcases Sikh history, including ancient swords, weapons, and writing tools used by kings. The langar is available at all times, reflecting the spirit of service and hospitality. While the place is generally peaceful, it can get crowded on weekends and during festivals.

Paonta Sahib Gurudwara: Unraveling The Spiritual Jewel At The ...Gurudwara Paonta Sahib is a prominent Sikh shrine in Himachal Pradesh, built in memory of the tenth Sikh Guru, Guru Gobind Singh, who resided there for over four years and composed parts of the Dasam Granth. The site features a museum displaying the Guru's weapons and pens, the Sri Talab Asthan and Sri Dastar Asthan where salaries were disbursed and turban-tying competitions were held, respectively, and a museum. The Gurudwara, situated on the banks of the River Yamuna. ❤️❤️❤️

Gurdwara Paonta Sahib Ji is a place of deep spiritual significance and peace. Situated along the Yamuna River, it offers a serene and calming atmosphere that instantly fills the heart with devotion. The gurdwara is beautifully maintained, and the surroundings are clean and well-organized. The langar (community meal) is served with love and humility, reflecting the true spirit of seva. The historical importance of this gurdwara, especially its connection to the Tenth Guru, Guru Gobind Singh Ji, makes it even more special. Whether you come for prayer, history, or simply to experience peace, this is a place that touches the soul.

If anyone asks what nature is then send him here. Anyone will definitely enjoy it here. Gurudwara, mountain, river and all you expect here with a neat and clean, hygienic Langer facility.

Visited today for darshan, ample space for large crowds in case. Kada prasad available for free and if more required you can purchase at nominal price. Lungar runs left side spacious building. Also there is ample space for car parking, only needs authorities to put sign boards for directions where to park & entry-exits. There are beautiful Yamuna river flows, you can even go down stairs having 85 steps from the gurudwara premises only to take a holy bath.

Very serene place. Guru Gobind Singh Ji resided here for some time. Sh Ajit Singh was born here. Stay arrangements are also there.

Kalesar National Park is situated in the foot hills of Shiwalik ranges of mighty Himalayas. On map it is located between 300 18’ to 300 27’ North latitude & 770 18’ to 770 35’ East longitude. It falls under Yamunanagar District of Haryana, sharing boundary with three States viz., Himachal Pradesh, Uttranchal & U.P. The Yamuna river form the Eastern boundary with Uttar Pradesh, the main Shiwalik ridge separates State boundary among Haryana, Himachal Pradesh & Uttaranchal in the north. Kalesar National Park is named after the Kalesar (shiva) temple located in protected area. The whole area is full of bio-diversity having dense Sal forests, Khair forests and patches of grass lands, which support an amazing variety of plants and animal species. The park was declared as National Park on 8th December 2003 having an area of 11570 acres. Just adjacent to the National Park is Kalesar Wildlife Sanctuary and it was notified on 13th December 1996, having an area of 13209 acres.

It's an average location to visit not much beautiful. A temple near park name as Kaleshwar Temple of lord Shiva is a beautiful place to visit. If anybody wants peace then it's a perfect destination for that.

_A Hidden Gem for Photography Enthusiasts - Kalesar National Park_ I recently had the pleasure of visiting Kalesar National Park, and I must say, it's a nature lover's paradise! The park is lush green, with a serene atmosphere that's perfect for photography enthusiasts like myself. However, I was surprised to find that safari services are currently not available, and visitors are allowed to enter at their own risk. But that didn't deter me! I ventured in and was rewarded with some amazing experiences. The park is a haven for birdwatchers and wildlife photographers. If you're lucky, you can spot beautiful peacocks and capture stunning images. The surroundings are breathtaking, with great roads and scenic views that make for perfect photography opportunities. I highly recommend Kalesar National Park to fellow photography enthusiasts. Be sure to allocate sufficient time to explore the greenery, roads, and surroundings. A word of caution: be aware of wild animals, as they can appear unexpectedly. Keep your wits about you while taking pictures, and you'll have a wonderful time. _Recommendation:_ If you're passionate about photography and nature, add Kalesar National Park to your bucket list. It's a hidden gem waiting to be explored!

The only national park of Haryana on Yamuna Nagar Paonta Sahib highway. If you are passing from there don't forget to go for a jungle safari. It's a great experience specially for kids. It takes around one and half hour for jungle safari.

Kalesar National Park in Haryana is a hidden gem for nature lovers. Spread across 53 square kilometers, it boasts dense sal forests, diverse wildlife including leopards, elephants, and deer, and a rich variety of birds. The park offers scenic drives, trekking opportunities, and wildlife safaris, making it a great spot for adventure seekers. Visitors appreciate its serene environment and picturesque landscapes, though entry requires prior permits. If you enjoy untouched wilderness, this park is worth exploring!

Rich ln natural beauty near yamuna nagar in Haryana.I was coming back from Paonta Sahib, going to Delhi and stopped for a while but did not see any wild animals, except Rhesus Monkeys, who climbed on my window to look for food inside the car. Otherwise Kalesar National Park was just fine for fresh air. Must visit once with your family and friends.

Its so beautiful palace. Kalesar National Park spread across 13,000 acres (53 km2) was notified on 8 December 2003 and adjacent 13,209 acres (53.45 km2)Kalesar Wildlife Sanctuary was notified on 13 December 1996. However, it is alleged, absence of sufficient funds from the Centre is proving to be a hindrance in wildlife conservation in the national park.

Nice and divine place to visit. Lots of greenery all around also some hindus cultural belongings are preserved the. There is also a maze temple and a very small river. A big temple named Surya dhaam is under construction there.

It was historical place, In past there was two friends Haaji Shah and Lal das. Haaji Shah was Muslim and Lal das was hindu , both are very close friends . When Haaji Shah went to Haj In Arab , Lal Das became very sad and when Lal das went to Haridwar , Haaji Shah became sad . One day Lal das said to Haaji Shah if I will make your same Masjid like in Arab then will you Stop to go there . Haaji Shah said yes ofcourse . Lad das made Same Masjid like in Arab in night with his tapasya .. Next day Haaji Shah became very happy , and he thought I should also do something for Lal das so he will not have to go to Haridwar. Then he also did one majic with his power that he earned from Nawaj .. He brought Ganga ji at same place that river called pawn dhoi( foot cleaner) . Because when Lal das was in samdhi river touch his feet to awak him so that river called Pawn dhoi . So after that Both friends will not go to Haridwar and Arab. They live together .. That the one of palce in India where we can see the true friends of humanity .. Now a day at this Place Mr. Ajay Gupta( Business Man) is doing the construction to make Big Akshardhaam Mandir .. Last five years 24 hours construction is going on ..thousand of workers daily are doing work to complete this Mandir..

Very nice palace

Lies on the bank of paodhoi river , very old structures lies in a crowed place, streets are very narrow. A new shiv temple is being constructed like akshardham temple. Very beautiful structure. Pao dhoi River is very dirty. Administration is trying to make this river clean and bring back to its original state.parks and embankments is being built.

This was one of the best experiences I had . Lots of offroadings exploring the capabilities of both myself and my machine . The roads Rahul ji took us on were not the regular ones and totally amazing trails . He knows the landscape and internal routes very well . The best part is he builds a connect with all the travellers and makes sure things go smoothly . Thank you Dr.Rahul Chauhan aka MAT for this memorable trip and many more to come .

Excellent planning, and execution of both the road trips we had with plant way round. They make sure you keep remembering the road trip and time spent with your friends. Many more to come rohit and saurab.

This is my 5th trip with planet way round I also done leh ladhak trip in 2018 with another group but this trip for me unforgettable memories.special thanks to Mat who give us care love and comfort what we want.we are also interested with planet way round more trips in future.Thank you Mat God bless you.

I had recently travelled to leh Ladakh with planet way around , as a co passenger with Rahul, words are quite less to express my gratitude the way the trip had went. I had a lifetime of experience with the most stunning, extremely beautiful places in Ladakh with the most adventurous experience without any fear. Been on some of the most dangerous terrain and roads, but with expertise Rahul had shown and the guidance he had provided , I had the wonderful and way more comfortable trip as I had imagined. I would definitely recommend Planet way around if you really want to go out of the box and experience the things which you do not have imagined also.

Nestled in the historic city of its namesake, the Kurukshetra Panorama and Science Center is a beautiful and unique destination that masterfully bridges the gap between ancient epics and modern scientific curiosity.

This great place present the ancient historical war science practice in modern times.. through module, painting, cinema slideshow etc. Very nice efforts made to present Live Mahabharat war battle field. A good 3D show is also available at some extra charges.. must see by everyone, specially for Students for educative purpose. Clean and compact place with full security and safety. Good maintained.. very cooperative staff and informative guide at reasonable rates available. A great unique experience.

There are many places to visit in kurukshetra but this science panorma is one of my favourite places to visit It is because of many science experiments present in the panorama which leads us to get a better understanding of the science things that happened in the world so for the purpose of learning about science you should visit panorama. Is ticket only cost 50 rupees but if you are in a group of more than 25 people that will cost 40 rupees each person. There are many science experiment present related to math history astronomy and etc.

main attraction of the Centre is a life-like panorama of the epic battle of Kurukshetra that showcases Mahabharata war with scientific explanations justifying every episode in the war

This is one of those places where you might end up spending hours since there’re a lot of small yet fun things to do. They have their own 3D show running, have a panorama view of Kurukshetra war on the first floor, and there are dozens of science related activities inside. A really good initiative by the local government to promote tourism.

Museum is well-designed especially the presentation of the Mahabharata war on the upper floor which was truly captivating. It offers a unique blend of science and history.....

The museum has six galleries, three each in two blocks. On display are stone sculptures, bronze castings, leaf etchings, miniature paintings, clay pottery and terracotta artifacts. An extension of this museum is the Multimedia Mahabharata and Gita Gallery set up by Haryana Tourism in collaboration with Ministry of Tourism, Government of India.

Someone has put a genuine effort into collecting crafts, artworks and manuscripts that do reflect the richness of the Krishna tradition in India - as well as local archaeological efforts - unfortunately, it's barely curated and poorly captioned like every Indian museum.

The staff are polite in nature one of the best museums not only in the Kurukshetra bus in the whole of Haryana state Inside the museum you all witness antique old items of different civilization or god goddess ideals picture painting Clean and green environment peaceful place with soft Krishna Bhajan all around the museum The canteen also provides quality food if you want to try just try without any hesitation Very nice place to visit with family and friends

Shrikrishna Museum in Kurukshetra offers a fascinating journey into India's ancient past with minimal entry fees of ₹30 for adults and ₹10 for children. The museum proudly presents artifacts from the Harappan era alongside displays related to religious traditions, including detailed narratives about Lord Krishna and the Mahabharata. The collection features ancient pottery, sculptures, and relics that evoke the rich cultural heritage of India. Visitors can explore the intricate craftsmanship and historical significance of each exhibit, making it an engaging experience for history enthusiasts and casual visitors alike. The serene atmosphere further enhances the learning experience, ensuring that every visit is both educational and memorable.

Krishna, the embodiment of intellectual and spiritual glory has been a subject of adoration ever since the character got deified as a God. His versatile personality made him a deity. Unfolding the mystery of Krishna is virtually an enchanting experience as every time you untwine the fabric of Krishna you discover a new dimension in it. The divinity and human aspect of Krishna as revealed by his character in the literature is unparalleled in the history of human civilisation. He has been a source of perennial inspiration to the art and literature. He is the most popular character in Indian myths and legends. Washrooms available inside Water,drinks,ice creams available inside

Situated near Panorama. you can see many idols and painting of Shri Krishna. On the other floors antiques of harappa and indus valley civilization. A gallery is dedicated to Mahabharat. Worth visiting

What an amazing place, there are all kind of great articrafts related to lord krishna. Various craft style and painting from various parts of India is beautifully shown. The 360° theatre showing the Mahabharata scenes was mesmerizing. It was great experience there. Jai Shri Krishna 🙏🏻

I had the chance to visit Brahma Sarovar in January this year, and it was truly a beautiful and peaceful experience. The place holds immense historical and spiritual significance, yet it’s surprisingly less known among tourists. The energy here is something you feel the moment you step in. It’s serene, scenic, and deeply rooted in India’s legacy. I really hope more efforts are made to promote this hidden gem—India needs to know more about treasures like this!

Hygiene 10 out of 10.... Beauty 10 out of 10... Whenever i come here...i feel so much peace… no noise or chaos... sitting on stairs and watching sarovar make me feel relaxed and calm...

It’s basically a pong with a temple in it. Artificial/ man made and very well maintained. Not really a tourist place.

A beautiful place and main attraction in Kurukshetra. It is surrounded by ghats and the land of Kurukshetra is considered holy as the war of Mahabharata was fought here. It’s calm, well-maintained and a really good place for a stroll. Would definitely recommend to visit if you’re in the city.

Brahma Sarovar is an ancient, sacred, man-made water tank in Kurukshetra, Haryana, India, associated with Lord Brahma and the Hindu faith. It is a significant pilgrimage site where devotees take holy dips for spiritual purification and which hosts the annual Gita Jayanti festival, commemorating the birth of the Bhagavad Gita. The area is also significant for its connection to the epic Mahabharata and offers a serene, peaceful environment with a traditional evening aarti ceremony.

Brahma Sarovar in Kurukshetra is an absolutely breathtaking place, blending natural beauty with spiritual tranquility. The vastness of the area is the first thing that strikes you—spanning across acres of land, it offers a serene and peaceful environment perfect for relaxation and reflection. The large ponds that fill the Sarovar are equally impressive, but dirty waters. One of the most memorable experiences here is the evening Aarti. The atmosphere during the Aarti is nothing short of magical—the sounds of devotional chants and the fragrance of incense fill the air, while the setting sun casts a golden hue over the entire area. It's a truly spiritual experience that brings a deep sense of peace to anyone who takes part in it. The sight of graceful swans gliding across the water adds an extra layer of charm to the place. Watching them move in harmony with the water is both mesmerizing and soothing. Whether you're a spiritual seeker, nature lover, or simply looking for a peaceful spot to unwind, Brahma Sarovar is the perfect destination. The combination of its natural beauty, spiritual energy, and the peaceful ambiance makes Brahma Sarovar a must-visit when in Kurukshetra. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a meaningful and peaceful experience!

Very calm and serene place. Visited this place during my SSC exam. The place is beautiful especially at night. There's a pond behind the main Gurudwara which is lovely. They have good room facility to stay at night. Only 300 for a night. Rooms are spacious and they are also clean as well. Although the top most rooms can feel a little hot in summer. But it's the ideal place to stay if you are going for an exam.

Gurudwara Sri Manji Sahib Ji is one of the oldest Gurudwara Sahib in Ambala City. Many people come here to pay offerings to Guru Har gobind Singh Ji, the 10th Guru of Sikhs. This religious place also has a history attached to it. I have shared the details in the pictures. This Gurudwara Sahib has Bauli Sahib. It is believed whosoever drinks this holy water or takes bath from this holy water or She get rid of all the diseases and their wishes will be fulfilled. Waheguru ji Mehar karn 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Waheguru ji. A peaceful religious point (Gurudwara) associated with 6th Sikh guru, Guru Hargobind Sahib ji. He stayed here for 1 night while going to Gwalior jail from Amritsar. And on the request of local people the Guru dug the spot in this location to pour out holy water called Jal.

Gurudwara Manji Sahib was constructed at the place where the sixth Guru Guru Hargobind Singhji stayed during his visit to Ambala city. The grand building of the Gurudwara is located on the G.T. Road.Guru Hargobind is said to have stayed here overnight while on his way to meet emperor Jahangir. The villagers of the nearby Khurampur Majri complained of perennial scarcity of drinking water. The Guru encouraged them a dig a baoli and instructed some Sikhs who lived here to assist the villagers in digging and lining the baoli. The Guru was pleased to see the work completed on his return from Delhi.

Too much devotional place

Chhati(6th) patshahi & many Sikh guru visit this Gurudware also a bawoli it's beautiful great & holy place no need to discribe it.

Gurudwara Sri Manji Sahab Sarovar is One Of The Best Peaceful Place in Ambala where i Heartily feel a really Inner Peaceful ...
