Himachal Pradesh is a wonderful home that no one can miss after having been there. It has deep, swooping pine valleys, imposing mountain ranges that are stunning, with religious structures in the form of temples and monasteries. Start by looking for benefits from the most important shrine, The Golden Temple in Amritsar, and enter a brand-new world that will greet you with a vibrant and accurate fusion of Tibetan, British, and Himachali culture supported by the nation's Dhauladhar range.
Bring out your inner cricket fan and take a picture of yourself "fan cheering" in the largest cricket stadium in the world, which is located in Dharamshala. Trek via the less-traveled pine forest trails to Khajjiar.This trip will refresh your senses and might be a great break from your routine life. Whether you decide to explore (the small Switzerland of India), go café hopping to find the best Tibetan food, or just sit back and relax next to the gushing Bhagsu waterfall.
