MANALI – the paradise of running streams, fairytale cottages, and postcard views is nestled amongst the higher Himalayas in the Indian State of Himachal Pradesh. Amidst the hilly slopes of snow-covered mountains, Manali was once known as the “end of the inhabitable world”. Today, the enchanting town is a perfect blend of rich cultural heritage and age-old traditions. In the chaotic streets of souvenir hunting tourists, you will come across people of all cultures, Buddhist Monks, and backpackers looking for their adventure. Situated along the banks of river Beas, Manali is a true escape for YOU from the scorching heat down the hustle bussle life, plains Deccan Plateau.
SHIMLA – This little place is nestled in the forest regions of Himalayas and is at a lower altitude as compared to Manali. This too is a great place to spend your day and experience the pahadi culture but a tinge of urbanisation. Shopping can be your main activity here along with visiting few of the interesting sightseeing places.
