Holi in Rishikesh ( INDIA ) .... 2017

in #photography8 years ago (edited)

The holy city of Rishikesh, in the base of the Himalayas, holds deep cultural and spiritual significance for local Hindus. Sacred rivers and mountains set the scene for yoga and reflective hikes, and rafting here is an absolute must.
The place where The Beatles got in touch with their Eastern spiritual side , writing several songs during a 1968 stint at a local ashram.

I had chosen to take this journey to experience the Holi festival in Rishikesh rather than remain in Delhi which i happened to be at that point of time.
An inviting spread of colours in an ancient town like Rishikesh is some thing sacred and was honoured to be there to indulge in a riot of colours, music and holi sweets along with white water rafting.DSC_06241.JPG
