Memorable trip to Manali

That was an auspicious day - my trip to Manali in Himachal Pradesh. I am a person who loves to travel long distances but while travelling to Manali I fell asleep. My mom woke me up to say we had reached. The moment I opened my eyes I was amazed - blue skies, white mountains, green land. It was very cold too. We stayed in a lodge near the river Beas. From the window of my room I was able to see the Rohtang pass. It was fully covered with snow. I haven't seen such a beautiful mountain ever before.

The very next day I was there playing in the snow. The guide said we won't be allowed on the pass during winter because the roads to Rohtang would be fully covered with snow. I was wondering how cold it would be in winter. For the first time I did some skiing and played a lot with the snow. My sister did paragliding, etc.

Next day I went to Kullu, a place near Manali. There I went for rafting on the Beas. It was awesome. The water was ice cold and fast flowing. Kullu is famous for its shawls. I too bought one for my granny.

There is a road called mall road in Manali, where both the sides of the roads are full of shops. We could see different types of clothes, eatables, shoes, bags, etc. Every thing was extraordinary.

I also went to some other places like museums, Hadimba temple, parks etc.

There are also many other temples. In one there were many monkeys and I was scared.

I really enjoyed it a lot there. After three days bliss, we planned to go back home. I was not able to forget Manali, her climate, and specially the river Beas whose noise was heard day and night without any rest.

We all must have heard a proverb " East or west home is the best " but if you have once travelled to Manali, then this proverb makes no sense to you as Manali is like heaven, a place where you get lost in its beauty.

                       Memorable Journey

There are many memorable moments in every man’s life. However, a few of them get indelibly etched in our memories. One of my most memorable moments is associated with a wonderful holiday at Manali. Travelling breaks the monotony of our routine. Thank God, there are so many beautiful places visiting which, we forget all the stresses and cares of our life! I got an opportunity to travel to one such place of extreme natural beauty, where peace and the pristine pastoral charm has not been affected by the modern industrial competition. During the summer vacation, I got the chance to visit Manali and the adjoining spots.

The best part was the journey to Manali. We set out early in the morning. The heat of the season began dwindling as our car went up the serpentine roads in the Himalayas. The drive from Sundar Nagar to Manali was a real treat to the eyes. On either side of the serpentine road breathtaking vistas of unmatched sylvan beauty soothed not only the eyes, but the restive soul also. Deep dells, with pure verdant slopes; idyllic, pastoral human settlements, glimpses of the far off white sheep grazing on the slopes of the mountains under the canopy of azure sky are the enthralling views one gets as a gift for coming to this paradise. I did not want the drive to end. As we neared Manali, the mountains became taller and taller. The peace, tranquility, and splendour of Manali and its surroundings were supernal.

My father had intentionally got a hotel booked on the banks of river Beas where the nature was abundant. From the room window, the distant snow clad white mountains gave the illusion as if we are in a different world. At night we went on foot to the market for dinner. First time in my life I saw the magnificence of the night sky. I did not know there were so many stars in the sky. For, in the city the pollution hides this glory of the sky from the human eye. We were fully refreshed by our short stay at Manali. The beauty of Rohtang Pass, Solang Valley, Hadimba Temple were beautiful; but far more beautiful was the journey itself. Though at the end I suffered from jet lag and itchy feet, yet it was an awesome experience. I will always cherish the sweet memories of this journey.
