It commonly known as Ridi, was named after a mythological girl named Ruru.
She was born to a fairy named Pramlocha and brought up by a doe. Ruru, through
her penance, pleased Lord Vishnu. When Lord Vishnu appeared before her and
asked her to beg of him for a boon, she asked him to stay there forever. So,
Lord Vishnu stayed there as Hrishikeshav. There are two separate temples
dedicated to Lord Vishnu and Ruru Kanya. A four armed stone- image is seen
inside the Hrishikeshav Temple. Other places worth visiting are
Bhrigutungeshwor Mahadev, cave, Achammeshwor, Ram temple at Rudrabeni etc.
