Here we had our so called dinner.This dhaba is between karnal and panchkula.

Solan is the district headquarter of Solan district.Solan is 46km from Shimla.

Night view of Solan

Shimla morning.

Ganahatti.This is the most scary place of all the trips.Because our car breaks got failed here.Its an advice to the outsiders.Of you are driving in himalayas,use less breaks.

This dog was following us since half an hour.This dog was very hungary so gave him some biscuits.I love this shot.

Waiting for the tyres to cool down.Use less breaks in himalayas.The more you gonna use breaks,specially at 3rd or 4th gear.Car tyres get heated up.The moment you going to start the car.Breaks will not work.Specially for outsiders,use less breaks.

Mandi.

Shere punjab restraunt.This is the second time,i am eating dinner here.One of the best restraunant.

Manali Mall Road

We reached manali at 10pm.It was a 10hrs long journey.Infact we were going back because of brake fail but still we continued.Everything was fine????

This is the second time in manali.Same hotel and this was the same place i was sitting 2 years back.This is Shere Punjab restrautant.Do visit here.Then we went back to our hotel near Vashisht.

Morning view in Manali.Time is 6:30Am. I love that this morning's sunrise does not define itself by last night's sunset.

Lookin at the himalayas,thinking of the memories that we sometimes forget in our daily life.The morning sun rays which are touching the himalayas gives the confidence to stay firm in your life.

Sometimes i feel like why these himalayas are so beautiful and amazing.Sometimes i think why these himalayas dont let me to touch its peaks or should i let the silence of himalayas speak.Then i retained my memory,that i am the one who is born here.

Solang Valley.We had our breakfast here just 1km before solang.We again headed towards rohtang.It was all unusual.Took the permit with the help of my friend.Left manali at 10am.Permit for rohtang is available online also for Rs550.

This place is 12km from Manali.We tool a halt here for 20mins and i could not stop myself to click pictures.

Gulaba.Gulaba is 20km from manali.Gulaba received a heavy amount of snowfall in winters.From here we showed are permit for rohtang.After this your doors are open for rohtang.Those who are without permit have to return back.

Rahla.Rahla is 29km from manali.We stopped here as there was a taxi accident just one day before my visit.You can see that accident in the next photo.

In this accident 2people died and the others were injured.This is other side of himalayan roads.Use less breaks while driving down.Break failing possibility is high.Drive safe in himalayas.

This view was few kilometer before Marhi.This shot was between Marhi and Rahla.

This is Marhi. Marhi is a "shanty town of roadside restaurants".Marhi is between Rohtang la and leh-manali highway.It is seasonal and closed in winters.You can stop here,everything is available here.Lunch,breakfast with the beautiful views.

This is Rohtang snowpoint.It is 55km from manali and Kokhsar is 35km from here.Rohtang is famous for its death road and scenic views.Rohtang is opened for 6months only.It is opened in may and roads are closed in November due to heavy snowfall.

This is Rohtang Top.

This is Koksar.We awere few km away from Koksar.No one was allowed to go beyond rohtang snowpoint.We took permission from the police person and headed towards Koksar.

Koksar

We took the permission from the cops to let us go further.After that we crossed Rohtang snowpoint and went towards Koksar.Koksar was just 6km from the place where we took hault.

Koksar is one of the villages in Lahaul Spiti district .Koksar is about 19 km from Rohtang Pass. Koskar is the coldest place in Lahaul. It is mostly snowed in during winters but during the summer it is way beyond heaven.

These are some clicks in Koksar.Koksar leis in between sissu,keylong and Rohtang.

This is Rohtang Pass snowpoint.

After spending some time nearby Koksar.It was time to return back to Manali.We were returning back to Delhi but again the same thing happend.Near Solang Valley,our car break got failed again.It was a stone lying that saved us.

This was the same problem that happend near shimla.Again we were safe.So instead of going back to Delhi.We stayed in manali for a night again.Next morning we went back to Delhi.Took 16hrs to reach Delhi.
