It is always been a delight to visit Himalayan places be it at Jammu & Kashmir or Leh Ladhak or Manali for that matter. Its been a really an awesome experience for me visiting Manali, the serene location takes your heart out with clear concise wind flowing through the way touching your skin breezing your body and a delightful natural treat to your eyes. Wow! it is indeed a wonderful place to visit. And not to forget the snow cladding mountain visible all over the place like an extra chocolate on a vanilla ice cream. I would be an idiot if I say this place has nothing to write about.
Accessibility:
There are many ways to reach this place be it by a Bus, Car or a Train. It is no way a dumb place where there is no proper transportation, after all it is one of the happening tourist place in India. I took a flight from Hyderabad to Delhi and then a car journey heading over to Himachal Pradesh, I wanted to explore more nature on my way to Manali hence the car. Well, roads are not straight and it is bit bumpy at times(ghat road), but that is the actual fun, you will see many eye popping scenes, serene, beautiful places on the way which will surely mesmerize you.
Local Sightseeing:
Solang Valley, Beas River, Hidimba Temple, Manikaran Gudwara, Manu Temple, Jogini Waterfalls, Van Vihar National Park, Gadhan Thek and off-course many other Himalayan adventure sports right from Trekking, River Rafting, Skiing, Cycling, Hiking and Camping.
Accommodation:
Once you reach Manali there are many places to lodge inn be it in a Guest House, Cottages, Hotel or a Lodge.
Prices are very reasonable ranging from mere 300/- to 2000/- per day and excellent food as well. I stayed in a hotel called "Holiday Cottages" for four days which costed me around 1600/- for a single day.
For all those who wanted to visit this place I advise you to take a motorcycle or a cycle to visit local sightseeing, it will surely get those serene beauty into your nerves.
I highly recommend this place, atleast once one has to visit these places in his/her life time.
Do note many people think Kullu Manali is one place, well it is not Kullu is at starting point 40km lower than Manali.
Experience Manali.
Have a safe journey:)
