MANALI, HIMACHAL PRADESH INDIA

HIMACHAL PRADESH - one of the 27 states of India. Manali is a beautiful hill station. Here are some photos from there. Unfortunately I have only a few which I can share here for now.


PHOTO - 1 PHOTO-2

1. A hilly road. Autumn in Manali, Himachal Pradesh, India. Ohh just to walk on this road with autumn leaves strewn all over hand in hand with someone I love.. The magic of Mighty Himalayas enchanting our souls.

2. The Beas River. After I have walked hand in hand with my love we cuddle ourselves inside the riverside hut. The mountanous river waters gurgling over the boulders. - BEAS RIVER, Manali, Himachal Pradesh, India


3. Snow at Manali

4. Trees in Autumn - Actually it was December.

One of the finest hill stations of India where one just meet nature. Of course this was way back and now I do not know how much it has changed.

DALHOUSIE-KHAJJIAR ROAD in HIMACHAL PRADESH, INDIA

"Him" Means extreme cold in Hindi and some other local Indian Languages.
"Alay" Means Abode. So HIMALAYA means the ABODE OF EXTREME COLD.
So what about some snow now?

Here we find snow on the road from Dalhousie to Khajjiar. Not so clean as India is full of dust and dirt and mud. So the snow here was mixed with muddy contaminants.
