Stop At: Ram Jhula, Rishikesh 249137 India
Rishikesh has been a part of the legendary Kedarkhand (the present day Garhwal).[11] Legends state that Lord Rama did penance here for killing Ravana, the asura king of Lanka; and Lakshmana, his younger brother, crossed the river Ganges, at a point, where the present bLakshman Jhula bridge stands today, using a jute rope bridge.[12] The Kedarkhand of Skanda Purana, also mentions the existence of Indrakund at this very point. The jute-rope bridge was replaced by iron-rope suspension bridge in 1889. After it was washed away in the 1924 floods, it was replaced by the present stronger bridge. Another similar suspension bridge Ram Jhula was built in 1986 at nearby Sivananda Nagar.
