3 things I like in my visit to Manali

 Manali - Heaven in India on Earth

Mostly every Indian has wish to trip for a Manali. I had also wish to go for Manali. Last year(2020), I had made a plan for Manali in Feb just before Covid-19 attack and lockdown, but I was not able to visit due to work pressure and I had to say good bye to my friends. I was very excited for that trip and I know each and every thing about our trip as I had organised this trip with schedule. So I thought for better luck for next time.

This year(2021), After unlock and low corona cases in India, I again planned a Manali trip with Invincible. I and my friend joined invincible basecamp at Naggar village for  2 days trekking to Nathan. Our plan was also to leave invincible and to visit other places in Manali also.

3 Things I like about Manali

Trekking with New Friends in Invincible Camp

There were about 60 new people whom I met on single trip. I had played games with them, trek with them and did lots of fun. Many of them I had know very nearly and they became my friends and came to my life. Talking while trekking unknown people was awesome experience. 

We stayed 1 night at Invincible Nathan Basecamp at 5000 ft and we played some fun games here, DJs and Garba in Night in 2 degree temperature.

We had pass almost 3 and half days and had great fun. 

Paragliding and River Rafting

Paragliding and River rafting were two from my long wish list and that I did here by invincible. Paragliding was about to 10 mins and view was very beautiful. I had did paragliding from 9500 ft. It was mind-blowing experience. If I am bird then I can easily fly but I am not 😭. So it was awesome flying experience. 

River rafting in beas river in Kullu was amazing. Our boat was going on river between two side of mountains. Ahhaaa... It was very beautiful scene. There were also many big stones on the way and we were trying to push and pull out boat on river by jumping on boats. We all became kids again. We don't know our age and we jump on boat again and again.

I have did them first time and It was amazing experience.

Walk towards Hidimba Temple from Mall Road 

After leaving invincible, I and my friends stayed near mall road, Manali. First day, It was snow fall and I had seen it first time. We enjoyed it a lot. Very next day my friend had done shopping and we went to Hidimba temple. Weather was very awesome when we started to walk towards Hidimba temple. There were too many long trees 🌲  and looking them was very good experience. There were too many van-vihar where we can sit on benches and look many beautiful  scenes and trees.

Snow fall at Hidimba Temple, old manali

We reached Hidimba Temple, worshipped and went backside of temple. Due to previous  day snow fall, there were much snow on the land so we enjoyed a lot with snow. From there surrounding view looked awesome. Visit to Manali and if there is snow fall then its like hindi saying for this  'sone pe suhaga - सोने पे सुहागा' (Double happiness).

It was great journey to Manali. I wish every year I can visit Manali in different different season to explore more weather in Manali.
