Manali, Himachal Pradesh, India
Maybe the hometown was Calling,
Or was it the wind,
Finally made a decision to escape to the place where you truly belong..!
Julley Everyone!
It had been quite a while since I have been home.... When I was staying away from my hometown for my collage studies.. This weekend I finally made a decision to escape to the getaway The mountains and relax for a while and explore the unexplored peaks of the Himalayas before the winter season or the first fall!
The twelve hours journey from Delhi to Manali is quite an adventure! But getting to calmer and quiter place like Manali was also a whorth while of that of the Journey!
Getting away from the hustle and bustle of the cities I woke up to this moment. The NH-003 and the river Beas flowing right along with the road.
It was around 8PM In the evening when I took a night bus from Majnu Ka Tila Delhi. Which was a tibetian settlement along the Banks of Yaumna River. The Bus was quite late as per the time mention and Even I was tired enough waiting along with my luggage, But the happiness of going home kept the spirits high!
As I Sat In the bus the journey felt like a Dream! And woke up to this moment! It was around 6AM in the morning when the first sunshine woke me up! The warmth in the sun was something that I was waiting for quite a while! The whole nights journey was all in the dim lights of the bus and even I was not able to capture the picture due to low light! But the photographs early this morning were quite to share with you guys!
The Local Buses just few inches away from us was passing by due to the narrow roads of the Mountains! The 12 Hours journey does not feel quite exhausting due to the newly constructed roads as before it used to take around 16-17 hours of a drive in order to reach Manali from Delhi.
The local shops of fruits were all that we could see at this place called Bandrol outside our windows and few of them they were literally asking people to buy the boxes of fruits wile of a running cars and few of them even stopped at them and packed the fresh fruits.
There were a bunch of Rafting corners, where there were tiny banners and boards of contact numbers of the Rafting agents who would provide the rafting service in the Beas river.
There was a sudden drop in the temperature as we reached Kullu which was around 40KM Before our destination Manali. In Delhi the weather felt like it was the peak summers and in Manali the weather conditions felt like before the fall.

It was around when we were finally few KM away from Manali and the Journey felt quite an adventure. I tired capturing various photographs from different angles and sights so that even you guys could get the true picture of the moment.
So thats all for today guys! I hope you liked it.
Thanks for your precious time. 🙏
Love from the Himalayas.❤️
