From China to Pakistan Border-(Shimla Episode)
Went for a trip during the apogee this semester. It was one of the most exciting trips i ever had in my life. 1 full week of travelling and having fun at every stop we had. As, we were a team of 19 members ..a big gang of enthued bitsians, we took three vehicles and started off late in the night at around 3am soon after MITHALI.
We directly set out for Shimla and didnt take a break in the journey till we were there. It is first time i have travelled that long on a GHAT Road(90km ) to reach shimla. That place is simply amazing . People genrally walking down the hills to carry out thei daily routine activities. All the houses in different colours making the mountains look damn colourful. We took rooms in a hotel at the very begining of the city and stayed there for the night. We went on for a everning walk t see the place and had dinner in the mall road.
Next day morning we set out for a place called KUFRI which is 15km away from shimla and a famous tourist spot. We had to ride on horses to reach the mountain top which is 3 km from the parking. I had a thrilling experience riding on that. My horse was over enthued all kept running all the time leaving the other group members. Finally we landed at a magnificient place which had a panaromic view of the himalayas. We could see many places using the telescope.
And the much awaited thing ..the SNOW... we played in the snow for a while till we got exhausted. Later we visited a temple which is on the peak of the mountain. We came back to the parking place again on the horses. We headed for the Shimla Heli pad from there before we left the place.
