Lakshman Jhula, which was built in 1929, is a suspension bridge, which is 450 ft long.The jhula was named after Shri Ram's younger brother Lakshman because it is believed that Lakshman used the jute bridge at the same site to cross the Ganga River.The bridges are 4 km from the Rishikesh railway station.
