A small Himalayan town surrounded by lush green beautiful forests and Beas river which compliments it by flowing side by side. Manali is one such place that does not just fit your pockets well but lets you witness nature’s wonders and brings you close to people and helps you understand the beauty of faith.

This perfect town is balanced with scenic beauty on one hand and people, culture, faith and food on the other. And unlike my previous post it does not need details of fooding, lodging and transport for it is as easy on pockets as anything can ever get. All you have to do is pick your vehicle, two wheelers or four wheelers and just be lost in Manali.

From nature to culture to food to faith to Marijuana, Manali has it all. It caters to every part of your soul. Marijuana being legal is probably what makes it the most visited place for foreigners. You can get the best in Kasol and Malana ;).

Shopping junkies can get amazing stuff at Kasol.
However, if you are more interested in only its beauty, do not forget to visit Rohtang and Solang, these are the places where clouds meet the land.

If you want to live close yet away from the hustle and bustle of city, Old Manali is the place for you. It is less crowded with the best crowd, beautiful and offers you the best fooding and lodging. It also has a lot of shops where you can shop till you drop.

and the name says it all. “People” for people
When owner and Menu’s and their food is this pretty and delicious.
and the name “Sunshine” says it all. *Burp*

For those on their honeymoons or family trip, do consider Solang, Rohtang, Hidimba Temple, Vashisht Temple, Jana waterfalls, Van Vihar, Jogini waterfalls, Bhrigu Lake, Buddhist Monastery and Manikaran are some of the best promising places which you shouldn’t miss. To visit all of this four days will suffice.

When faith becomes majestic
It is only when you give, you receive
A place where hot and cold meet
Beauty of faith (Manikaran)
When food like this is served in the waterfalls.
when faith is beauty
