Manalli: A perfect place to Enjoy

   

 The first place about which I will discuss today and which is a must visit place is Manalli which is located in Himachal Pradesh.

Manali is a valley nestled in the mountains of the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh near the northern end of the Kullu Valley, at an altitude of 2,050 m (6,726 ft) in the Beas River Valley. It is located in the Kullu district, about 270 km north of the state capital, Shimla 309 km (192 miles) northeast of Chandigarh and 544 km (338 miles) northeast of Delhi, the federal capital. The small town, with a population of 8,096, is the beginning of an ancient trade route to Ladakh and from there over the Karakoram Pass on to Yarkand and Khotan in the Tarim Basin. It is a popular tourist destination and serves as the gateway to Lahaul & Spiti district as well as leh. 

Well this was all about a brief introduction of Manalli.

Personally I have been there twice in 2016 & 2017. I have made a lot of memories there and so it's time for you now. It's also a favorite Honeymoon place among the couples. The weather here is chilled throughout the whole year. last year me and friend went there to enjoy the majestic snowfall and  we still cherish those moments and this year also I went there with my mates as our college trip was organised for Manalli. 

Well sharing my experience i enjoyed this year more than the previous year because this time when i went there it was fully covered with snow and the view was heart taking. We reached there on 15th December morning then we checked into our hotel. The hotel name was Citrus Manalli Resort a nice place to stay fully Hygienic and loaded with full facilities. Then we were taken to the Mall road at around 5pm in the evening then we just roomed here and there in enjoyed the Shopping which was just about the shawl hahah.......

After that we went back to our hotel and then we had dinner and a jam session was organized for we all and we danced till late night. 

Second day 16th December:

Now we all had our breakfast till 10am in the morning and then we headed towards Solang valley which is called as a paradise on earth i still remember that valley in front of my eyes what a view it has fully covered with snow and there were so many snow sports available over there though i performed only a few of them. We played there for around 3 to 4 hours then we had our lunch and then we went back towards our hotel and late night we had a Bonfire and a Dj night.

Third day 17th December:

It was our last trip day over there we had our breakfast,boarded our buses and quickly headed towards Chandigarh there we reached at around 9pm because in our way we visited the famous shawl factory named A-kay Shawl industries. In Chandigarh we stayed at Hotel Holiday In and overnight we enjoyed there.

Fourth day: 

Today it was our Industrial visit and we headed towards Panchkulla as we were going to see Infosys campus.

 After that we went to eElante the Fourth biggest mall in India which is in Chandigarh and then we were back Dehradun till late night .

  Overall we were on our Industrial tour but we enjoyed alot in manalli and I having visited manalli twice still have the curiousity to visit it again.

Now here i have listed some of the places to visit there which are as follows:

Hidimba Devi Temple, Solang Valley, Rohtang Pass, Bhrigu Lake, Pandoh Dam, Manali Sanctuary, Beas River, Hamta Pass and Great Himalayan National Park are among the famous places.
