Useful Tips

If you have more time, you can also visit the Beatles Ashram, where the famous band stayed in the late 1960s and created some of their best music. You can take a guided tour of the ashram and learn more about their stay. However, it is closed on Thursdays. If you have less time, you can skip the Rajaji National Park and explore the Triveni Ghat instead, which is a popular bathing ghat on the banks of the Ganges.
