Ṛṣikanyātīrtha (Rishikanyatirtha) is a site of pilgrimage by the river Narmadā(Narmada). After Mahādeva(Mahadeva) took as his wives a number of unmarried ṛṣikanyā(s) (rishikanya; daughters of sages) in this place, it came to be known as Ṛṣikanyātīrtha. Before that, it was known as Tridaśajyoti-tīrtha (Tridasajyoti-tirtha).
