A journey that etches in mind for ever...
As we approached the Ranjit Sagar dam over the river Ravi in the Himachal Punjab border...I was not prepared for the breathtaking view that was to mesmerize me out of my wits...they were the Pirpanjal ranges that divide the Himachal from the Kashmir valley beautifully magnificent in their snow capped glory with the sun reflecting of the rays and making it golden as if to tell us that a land of dreams awaits us there in the horizon..
And as our SUV approaches and climbs further on to those ominous mountains, we see the Dhauladhar ranges at a height more than 6000metres while we are at height of 1830 meters above sea level. Still the climb was one helluva experience...this is the road to the Himalayan ranges....
Our ultimate destination was the small picturesque hamlet of Mcleodganj nestled deep inside these valleys where the first signs of civilization is the holy town of Dhramsala where the Lamas reside...Here's a glimpse.
