Needless to say, Rishikesh is the ultimate destination for a yoga retreat. The place is considered the yoga capital of the world and contains thousands of year's worth of yogic heritage. Located at the foothills of the Himalayan range in north India, the place holds a special aura and energy about it where ancient sages have meditated and conducted yogic practice for thousands of years. The calm and serene atmosphere is conducive to efficient practice. The eternally flowing Ganga River flows through the heart of the town and is believed to liberate you from all your sins if you take a dip in it. Your day would start with a pooja at the Mahadev temple and meditation sessions and ends day with a spiritual atmosphere of the evening Ganga Aarti.
