Trip to Harsil

On our return from Gangotri, we reached Harsil and decided to stop by there. The small Streams of the water were mixing into the river Ganga. The molten water of the ice was coming down through the big rocks. The water was cold and the flow was fast. My sister and I had fun there, we played a lot with water.

According to Hinduism, it is considered a very sacred place. People who live here they say that Lord Shankar is worshiped as Palanhar.

My sister took that photo of me sitting on the rock and one thing Later I came to know that she is one heck of a photographer who was working for me for free of cost. There were a lot of small, big stones and trees around there. The cold winds and rays of sunshine were kissing our faces. The water flowing through the streams was so cold and it literally was pure white. It is best place to visit.

Kalp Kedar Temple

This Temple is the temple of Lord Shiva. This Is located at the Dharali. Legends say that this temple was here from the time of the Mahabharat Era. This temple does not have so many visitors because people don’t know about it all. Half portion of the temple is inside the river. The view from there was amazing. It Normally gives the vibes of the beach.

This is the third stop after returning from the Gangotri. The Khedi waterfall is located near Bhatwari, It is 20 km from Harsil. When we arrived there it was raining, People were enjoying the weather. The flow of water was soo fast. I was only able to take a shot of 12 seconds.

Uttarkashi, Uttarakhand

The Kashi of the north is also a word for Uttarkashi. Somya Kashi is another word for it. The people visit Uttarkashi for its Religious Temple’s and yeah sure we can say about the weather also Because the weather conditions here are the same as Shimla. The weather here can change anytime, I can surely say that because I have been there 6-7 days. It is also located on the banks of the Bhagirathi river.

The people around here were helpful in Nature. But the price of hotels is high Because it is one of the famous Tourists Attraction. I seriously lost the counts of the hotels from Uttarkashi to Gangotri. Here you can visit Vimleshwar Temple, Kashi Vishwanath Temple, and many more interesting places.
