“A book is a message we sent to our unknown friends around the world”.

THE MIGHTY HIMALAYAS
BY RASHIDA PARDAWALA
Family vacations are the best times of any year. Every year I start wondering which place is going to be our destination this vacation. This time, after a long discussion I won the chance to decide the destination.
We decided to plan a trip to my favorite location , surrounded by the mighty Himalayan mountain ranges, ,Himachal Pradesh-for the December break.

Himachal Pradesh has a lot to offer. It is a state in the North of India. Himachal Pradesh is filled with beautiful valleys, breathtaking mountain ranges, scenic hiking trails, mystical rivers and peaceful monasteries.
On 22 nd December 2020 , we flew to Dharamshala from Mumbai and then spent about two hours on the road to get to our first stop -Mcleodganj .


We stayed in a local house in Mcleodganj.It was beautiful and had very nice architectural design.
The colorful Tibetan flags, melodious sounds of chirping birds and ringing bells contributed to the rustic charm of this destination .



We stayed in Mcleodganj for 2 nights and also enjoyed local tibetan food like momos and noodle soup.
Our next stop was Kullu. It is a town located in the majestic hills which are covered in Pine and Deodar forests.
A large number of treks and trips also begin from Kullu and hence this town is a starting point for various treks.

In Kullu we stayed in a hotel which was on the bank of the River Beas. We stayed here for two days .The weather was great- every morning. We woke up to a deep blue sky each day.
On our last day here we went for a short trek to the hills. We also spotted some colourful birds here and enjoyed the scenery.

The local delicacy in Kullu is called the Kangri dhaam. It is made on special occasions and is a vegetarian meal comprising of rice ,roti and various dals and condiments. We relished this meal for one of our lunches here.

We checked out of our hotel in Kullu and went to our next and last stop, the hill station of Manali .
Anyone who wishes to see these white flakes of absolute joy falling from the atmosphere can visit Manali in the winters.
We reached Manali by road in two hours , checked into our hotel and had the day to relax .

The next day we went to do adventure sports in Solang Valley.
We did activities like quad bike rides, snow sledging and took a lot of pictures in the snow .

For our last day in Manali we decided to do some souvenir shopping for our family and friends .We went to Mall Road.
This street was Colourful with quaint roadside stalls & hawkers along. The winding stretches of road with the cheerful bustle of street markets were perfectly framed by the surrounding high snow-clad peaks. We did some good shopping of local items like shawls and tibetan goods.


The next morning we checked out of our Manali Hotel to end our incredible family trip to Himachal Pradesh. We drove down to Chandigarh .It took us 9 hours by road to get to Chadigarh Airport .We then took a flight to Mumbai and returned home safely with fond memories of our holiday.
