Road Trip in the monsoons in the hills, that too in the Himalayas is not a clever thing to do..anyone call tell…..
On the other hand, it’s a unique experience!!!!!….And I simply loved it when i when I went one in the last month!!
It so happened, that in the middle of monsoons this August, I got the chance to visit a remote place called Sorang in Kinnaur district in Himachal Pradesh(also called as ‘Dev bhumi’ or land of gods!!) on a work trip at a Hydro Power Project.
And the place being really remotely located, we spent more time on the road via rain, clouds, fog and some pleasant sunshine among lovely green mountains on our project site (culminating in a lovely misty evening spent in Shimla)!!!
I share some images of the trip with you guys here
In case you are not much of a mountain person, check out my article series on Andaman & Nicobar published on ‘The Other Home’ blog.
Amazing pictures. Kinnaur valley is one special place for me too. Going there again this April perhaps π …
