If you want to experience the spiritual side of India and the holy Ganges in all its glory, spend a few days at The Glasshouse on The Ganges by Neemrana Hotels in Rishikesh.
Kumar Shree
By The Mighty River

THE CAB RIDE FROM Haridwar railway station to The Glasshouse on The Ganges is not without anticipation—I am at a total loss about what to expect from the trip. After a while, I give up, rub my sleep-deprived eyes, and decide to settle for the soothing views around.

However, the moment I set foot inside The Glasshouse On The Ganges, the light babble of the river washes away my fatigue, along with any idea of sleep that I might have nurtured earlier. There’s something therapeutic about the air here, because I feel instantly energised. The Glasshouse premises is a harmony of sweet sounds—think bird songs, light murmurs of the breeze, and the constant hum of the River Ganga, waiting to unleash its magic upon its visitors.
