How long is the drive from Dehradun to Chandigarh?

The top stops along the way from Dehradun to Chandigarh (with short detours) are Sri Harmandir Sahib, Kempty Falls, and Rock Garden of Chandigarh. Other popular stops include Sukhna Lake, Manki Point, Sanjeevni Hanuman Temple, Kasauli, and Company Garden Taxi Service.
Located in Mussoorie at an elevation of 6000ft, Lal Tibba Scenic Point offers breathtaking views of the Himalayas. This popular tourist spot is known for its picturesque perspectives and lush green vegetation. Situated on the roof of a modest cafe, it provides visitors with the opportunity to enjoy cake, coffee, and a stunning view. The adjacent ruined estate offers an even better vantage point of the valley and surrounding hills.
From this particular place you can see amazing iconic places, valleys, and people too. One visiting this place should go around winters end or rainy end to see the clear mountains covered with snow. It's clearly seen from Lal Tibba. And from the other side you can see the entire Mussoorie and that is so amazing.
Have a great time ahead and please be gentle towards nature.

It is the highest point of Mussoorie and there are 2 cafes, one is Savoy cafe, famous for its patisserie and the other one is government approved (as they call it) restaurant, which also has large binoculars on the roof. But you won't be able to see much from it as the lens were not very clear.
However the atmosphere here was amazing. Cool winds, beautiful valley view and decent food. The only question is that would you spend 45 minutes traveling to this place and another 45 minutes while returning, just to spend sometime here?

Breathtaking view from the Lal tibba view point... The binoculars don't do much justice to what we witness with naked eyes!! Getting here from Char dukan point could sound like a task but amazing views treat you on each step!! Beautiful place, worth a visit!

This cafe is highly overrated. If you're going there for view i would suggest enjoy the view from outside the cafe it's free and the view is same. This place is so crowded that even if the seat is not available, the owner will let you enter, and they charge a fee of Rs. 50. The food is below average. If you still want to go there, just order a regular hot chocolate it tastes good.

Place is awesome, view is incredible and love the trekking we did there. Basically their is a cafe there . On that cafe top you can view giant beauty of Himalaya. Place is very neat and clean. Police is also very supportive. But you care full with the cab rental.

This place should renamed as HEAVEN! No one can express it's beauty in words. It's truly amazing. It'll hug you with it's immense beauty after a harsh drive through the steep mountain roads. And if you're lucky enough you'll be able to experience snowy roads.
And there's a cafe at the scenic point which offers freaking amazing food with a splendid terrace view of Himalayan wonderland ❤️
Lisa Biswas — Google review
The view is breathtaking from the top. One can get a clear glimpse of the true beauty of the hills of mussoorie from here. The road to the top is very narrow so one needs to be careful while driving by personal car here. The best is to take professional and experienced driver or local cab.
There is a private restaurant here where one can get a clear view of the natural beauty. The entry ticket to which is Rs.50 but if one order something to eat from here then that ticket price would be adjusted from the bill. We ordered a sandwich, Maggie and coffee and it was tasty. One can enjoy some quality time here.
Please walk around here to enjoy the view if you have time.
Must visit place.

Good small place for a quick 10-15 mins stop. A restaurant is setup with telescope who allows entry for Rs. 50 per person. You get to the 2nd level and through telescope get to iconic peaks from Himalayas. You phone camera will good zoom can also capture those peaks. If you have time in Mussoorie then do visit.

The location is absolutely amazing. Great view of Himalayas. Other than the location the point has a cafe which serves amazing delicacies. Please try the food in the cafe right below the point. We tried their famous sandwich, pasta and cold coffee. The cold coffe and brownie stole my heart

This point is at a great height from the city of Mussoorie. You'd be able to see the entire city on this face of the mountain, the sunset and the night lights. The whole cityscape is beautiful at night. It is blood freezing cold during winters so make sure to cover yourself up properly if you are not tolerant towards cold or wind. Do not go to the end of the road to park your vehicle, it is an unnecessary expense. You can just stop a bit beforehand and enjoy the same view.

Lovely view... Best for sunset... For sunrise you should go to George Everest... 50 rs entry for top and if you order something than entry was free. Vehicle easily can reach the place. No need to walk.

This place is situated in Landour, which gives mesmerizing view of himalayas. You can go and enjoy the view from the top of the cafe only after taking something from their menu to eat or drink. Or else you can pay 50rs as entry charge to enjoy the view. I tried cold coffee which was good with the view

Lal Tibba Scenic Point is a breathtaking vantage point that offers panoramic views of the majestic Himalayan range. Standing atop Lal Tibba, one is mesmerized by the snow-capped peaks, verdant valleys, and the town below. The cool mountain breeze and the serenity of the surroundings create a tranquil ambiance. A visit to Lal Tibba is a must for nature lovers and a perfect spot to soak in the beauty of the Himalayas.
Pranesh Guna — Google review
This place is located on a much higher slope from Mall road. You should not visit here in rainy or foggy season, then of course this becomes worst part of trip. No such good view to travel such place.
There is just this cafe lal tibba point. Here you have entry ticket of 50 rs per head, then you can have items at cafe from that cost.
Only after entering the cafe you can use telescope to get some view.
Mostly overrated.

kuntal mukhopadhyay — Google review
Not worth it.
It's a hyped place, just because celebrities went to these shops.
The restaurant is charging money (₹50 per person) for the scenic point view, although Binoculars is so outdated that you will not see anything- SCAM 😡😡, you can see a better view with your EYES.
Food- not good, unreasonably high price and serve filled with cheese with no taste. Cheese, Salt or Spicy those are the only flavours you will get here. And Biggest SCAM they said Entry fees will be deducted if you order food.
Instead go to Savoy Cafe which is in front of it and still better who won’t charge a penny for terrace and even food is good.

It is a simple place in Landour from where you can get a beautiful view of mountains , there is nothing much to do here even if you plan to skip this place in Landour that is also ok. The ticket price is Rs 80 per person.
It is known for its panoramic views of the Himalayan range. Visitors often praise its scenic beauty and the breathtaking vistas it offers. The peaceful atmosphere and the opportunity to see prominent peaks make it a popular destination for nature lovers.
The place is good for couples as well there is also a telescope along with cafe in lal Tina to drink and eat something.
Yatharth Singh — Google review
The view from here is simply breathtaking. You can even see the snow-covered peaks of himalayan range on a clear day. There's a conveniently located cafe which charges an entry fee of 80₹ /person. The parking charges are 50₹ per bike and public washroom at 10₹ per use.
Mihir Barve — Google review
If you're coming for the first time to see mountains it could be great place but the scenario will reverse if you've been to other places.
Exact shop which is named as "Lal Tibba restaurant", charges Rs.50 for every person if you're just visiting. If you eat there, this amount will be adjusted in the bill.
Food is not that great, neither taste wise nor proprtion wise. I tried chicken sandwich. Cold coffee was fine somehow but not special.
I'll advise you to visit this site during sunset.

Saw the winter line there. Amazing view. But don't rush to the end point the google map is showing. Would recommend stopping at 100 metres just before the end point, where there's one small structure. This point has the best view and lesser crowd compared to the end point. Just sit on the floor and enjoy the sunset.

GucchuPani, also known as Robber's Cave, is a popular tourist spot in Dehradun with a fascinating history. Legend has it that the cave was once a dwelling place of Lord Shiva and during British rule, robbers used it to hide their loot. The natural formation of the cave between conglomerate and limestone adds to its allure. Visitors can enjoy the serene surroundings and even take a dip in the waterfall.
Wonderful place where nature is showing its beauty in other way.
One will definately enjoy at this place as it is full of excitement and litte thrill.
River flowing between two cliffs seems very beautiful.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting this picturesque location, and I must say, the natural beauty here is truly awe-inspiring. Nestled in the heart of Dehradoon,
However, my experience was somewhat marred by the state of the small cafeteria on-site. Unfortunately, I found it to be quite dirty, with unclean tables and floors. This detracted from the overall experience, as I had hoped for a more pleasant dining environment to complement the stunning surroundings.
Another issue that warrants attention is the prevalence of smoking and drinking in public areas. It was disheartening to witness many individuals openly smoking and drinking, which not only detracts from the family-friendly atmosphere but also raises concerns about public health and safety.
this place as a natural attraction, I also believe that local government authorities should step in to ensure that rules and regulations are enforced. Their intervention is essential in preserving the sanctity of this beautiful location and ensuring it remains a safe and enjoyable destination for all.
In conclusion, while the natural beauty of this place is undeniably its greatest asset, there are critical issues that need addressing, particularly regarding cafeteria cleanliness and the need for stricter adherence to no-smoking and no-drinking policies. With the right improvements and government support,

Awsome experience. Entry fee is Rs 35/- per person. Only cash allowed.
Best for summer to dive in cold water.
Beautiful surrounding.
The outside area is fully covered with shops where you can eat, chill and enjoy.
You can buy slippers on rent for rs 10/- to go into the water.
Rs 50/- for car parking.
Overall I think it's best for Summers to chill in water. Also on the weekend it's very crowded.
Other than that just chilling and enjoying the view.

This cave was very beautiful. We had to walk through the water between the two mountains inside the cave. At the end of the cave it had a small waterfall which was very beautiful and at the side I think there was small hotspring because l felt some hot water coming out from the sides of the mountain.

What a nice cave. You have to walk through the cave with running water and at the end of the major cave there is a water fall. Water is quite cold and clean. You have to buy ticket to visit this place. Good roadside resturants are there. Well manage and good amount of parking space available here. Completely mesmerizing experience. Must visit place....
Virat Gaywala — Google review
This place is a beautiful nature made attraction in terms of a lake flowing inside from a cave. The beauty itself is mesmerizing but has a different perspective that during peak season it's not recommended to visit this place since we spend almost 2 hours in traffic just to cover 1 km. So we decided to walk while coming back. Don't visit during summer season. Secondly, government shall provide an alternate route to visit this place and a proper signage towards the directions.
Narender Singh Bisht — Google review
Beautiful place near Dehradun, with a stream flowing from the cave. It is in the cantonment area. Sometimes during the rains, the water flow increases suddenly and washes away tourists. So be careful while visiting this place, especially with children.
The main problem here is the parking. If you are travelling here on a weekend or some holiday or vacation season, then it's better to park your car above and then go down walking otherwise you will be stuck for like an hour waiting to reach down in your car.
Rishab Anand — Google review
I liked the place. But definitely too crowded especially during weekends.
Wear slippers (If not possible then can rent there but take a good grip one) and take care of your things otherwise it can easily flow.
Food wise I felt it was costly based on the quality.

I simply loved this place. One should definitely visit this place everyone including kids, young and elderly will enjoy. It's a cave with running water which you have to cross.

This place is truly a gem to hang out if you love nature. Going through the cave to reach the waterfall at the end is super relaxing. Walking through the flowing chilled water was not only exhilarating but also incredibly soothing. What amazed me the most was discovering multiple spots where warm water emerged amidst the cool flow, creating a unique blend of sensations.
Anupam Singh — Google review
The caves are gorgeous and amazing but It always just too crowded. If there were less people, it would been a stunning and unique experience. It’s a must visit if you are in Dehradun. The water is no more than knee deep. But overall this place provides a very unique experience.
Remember: you can enter wearing Slippers or sandals, if you are wearing shoes, you can buy/rent slippers from the shops outside. Suggest not to go in bare feet.
PS- We have gone far though the water to see the inlet of water from where it’s coming, however, had worst experience there. Birds and animals were seen dying there in the inlet of water 🥶😡

A gorgeous place in dehradun, consisting of natural valley and flowing water. You have to walk through the water and through the valley till a waterfall comes. Along the way the views are absolutely beautiful. Also there is a quick snack shop in the way. The 1 star that I have deducted is just for the ridiculous sleeper that we have to wear, we can't go in our shoes or our own sleeper/sandals. The sleeper that they provide is absolutely pathetic and it was sliding in the water, its quite dangerous I feel as one can slip and can fall on the rocks. I don't understand why we can't take our much better shoes/sandals with us, lots of us even have waterproof shoes. Though apart from this its a must go place, it really beautiful.
Rohan Rathod — Google review
An amazing place but too crowded so you can't enjoy the place that social media shows you!
Better you reach early in the morning when it opens and yes do come in slippers, chappals or sandals ... Don't come in shoes or else you'll end up paying 50-60rs to keep them in shops and yes avoid bringing the big backpacks and even if you do come with them, there are few people standing on the way and they'll do a favour of keeping your bags at their place with some 10-20rs per bag and it's safe.
Robber's cave counter guy doesn't believe in online payment so keep some cash handy.
Don't come back half way, complete the 2-3km water way and you're definitely going to enjoy the way.
The ending place is very boring but the water way till the end is amazing.
Divesh Ambade — Google review
These naturally made caves are a awesome piece of nature art. Good place to explore and spend some time. Just remember to carry extra pair of clothes if you wish to enjoy in water. Water level is more in initial part then lowers down to your ankles. Multiple food options before entering the premises.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Robber's Cave and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, I was captivated by the natural beauty that surrounded me. The cave itself was simply awe-inspiring, with its intricate rock formations and hidden chambers. Exploring its depths felt like stepping into another world.
The guided tour was excellent, with knowledgeable and friendly guides who shared fascinating stories about the cave's history and legends. They took us through narrow passages and pointed out unique features along the way. The highlight of the tour was witnessing the stunning waterfall inside the cave, a sight that left me in complete awe.
Outside the cave, the park offered a range of activities, including hiking trails and picnic areas. The lush greenery and serene atmosphere made it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy nature. The facilities were well-maintained, and the staff was helpful and accommodating.
Overall, my visit to Robber's Cave was a truly memorable experience. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an adventure in nature and a glimpse into the mysterious world of caves.

It's a good place to relax on weekends. It has a waterfall as well. Just there are some tourists who misbehave sometimes but there are also security local personal who takes action on time. Overall it is a great place to relax having good food outlets outside the cave. You can also get slippers on rent for just rupees 10. It have a entry fee of rupees 35 and you will also get some photographers inside the cave who can provide you some good pics stating there own prices(which are a bit high).
In all it's a good relaxing place.

This place is overcrowded and water level has no specific meter to check. Also huge risk of flash floods. Its suggested to take your own slippers or take one from the nearby shops if you don't carry one at minimal charges. You need to watch your step and the flow of water is not static. People went till end of the cave by due to heavy flow and high level I avoided it but the scenic view is good and since it's a cave so the place if cool inside. Here also you will be charged an amount while you enter the cave

Had an exhilarating Sunday at Robber's Cave in Dehradun! The natural beauty of the surroundings combined with the unique cave formations made it a perfect getaway. The crystal-clear stream flowing through the cave added a refreshing touch to the whole experience.
The well-maintained trails and bridges made exploring easy, and the echoes inside the cave were truly mesmerizing. Ideal for a day trip with friends or family, providing ample opportunities for great photos and memorable moments.

Robber’s cave is a must visit place in Dehradun, the crystal clear water from the rocks makes it look amazing. As the water level is till toes, I recommend to get the slippers on rent which cost you 10rs and available just outside the parking lot.

It is a unique holiday spot where you can enjoy a lot even in hot summers and get respite from heat. There is a stream of water flowing under a cave-like structure and visitors walk in the water stream.
It needs to be built properly near the entry into the water as people often fall there due to slippery stones at entry into water. Foul smell too near the entry gate needs to be taken care of and cleanliness to be maintained.
We went there in April 2024. You can enjoy it with your friends and family. Vehicle parking and toilets and lots of eating options are available. Tickets are available only offline and in cash only priced Rs 35/- as on April 2024.

There are many swings for childrens available at the entrance of cave.
Entry cost for the cave is 35 rupee.
Imp note- you must take pair of slipper as shoes are not allowed inside the cave as the there is water inside the cave

It is a beautiful place, so calm and peaceful. The murals inside the stupa are simply magnificent. You can spend a lot of time inside the stupa in silence, just absorbing the beauty and calmness around you. Right outside the monastery there are quaint eateries that serve authentic Tibetan food. The cafe inside the place was too laid back and took time to serve a cup of tea.

It is located right next to the Buddha statue. Serene place, with wide, well-maintained lawns and a pathway through them. There are white stupas, a central shrine, an old mercedes on display, and even a gift shop complex. Usually open till 7pm.
In the evenings, the place becomes vibrant with many families and visitors. Buddhist mantras fill the air through speakers installed all over the place. Outside the monastery, there are many eateries and cafes serving Tibetan and Indian food.
If you're in the neighbourhood, it's definitely worth a visit.

Mind rolling Monastery in Dehradun is a Tibetan Monastery where many monks live and live their ascetic lives.
The Monastery is a great to enjoy the serene atmosphere away from the jostle of the city life.
The architecture here is exotic and unique and it stands out among other structures of the city.
There is a small market for buying Tibetan stuff.
The lawns are well maintained and manicured and are a delight to watch.
One thing that stood as an eye sore were short video makers who were making dance videos in the pious compound disturbing the calm and serene atmosphere.
Parking here is available and is paid.

Lovely place to visit with your family and friends. One of the few calming places in Dehradun to get some much needed peace and quiet.
They have a big sprawling property,majority of which is covered with open green lawns to spend your time at leisure. There are various other huge religious structures built in and around the place.
The most magnificent structure of them all is the monastery itself which sits right in the middle of the place and is most definitely an architectural marvel. The attention to detail on it is on another level entirely.
The place is never crowded, so it is always a good time to visit, but do try to come when the prayer is going on as it is the only time in day the doors of the monastery are open for the public.
There is also a small arcade of sorts which has a couple of shops which sell religious products and a vegetarian Cafe.
Overall, it is a very positive place to visit. Even if you aren't interested in anything religious, spending some time here will most definitely make your day better.

The vibe is peaceful even on sunday. For entering the temple u have to enter without footwear. They have a locker for ₹3 per pair. No tickets for entry. But a nominal charge for car parking at ₹50. They have a huge campus for school, college, cafe, shops, temple and a lot more.

There are good cafes all around and outside of monasteries .There are shops to buy suviniers but the things are expensive as it is everywhere in such Places .
There are always some people who are very unconscious .I would like to request all the people to please respect the space and place and not to show romance I'm public here (specially the young couples ).

It's a beautiful Tibetan monastery, peaceful and calm and due to this it's one of my favourite places to visit in dehradun. The area is surrounded by some small cafes where you can try some good Tibetan food(my recommendation:laphing/momos). There are also some small shops where you can buy souvenirs. You can enjoy this place with your family and friends

Built on land gifted by Nehru to the Tibetan Buddhists as they fled after the 1959 uprising against Chinese Communist rule in Central Tibet. One of the largest Buddhist institutes in India. The stupa was built in early 2000s funded largely by foreign donations. Worth a visit. One must check their shoes to enter the stupa. The murals are worth the effort. The upper level is lined with maybe a thousand gold buddhas.

It's a wonderful experience visiting Buddha Temple. Very peaceful and clean area, food facility available along with shopping at reasonable fixed rates. Monks and people taking care of the place are calm. It's just 1 kms away from my home and I have seen this place while it was under construction and now it's a Gem. You should visit once if you visit dehradun. There is no entry charge but a charge for vehicle parking.

A must visit Buddhists temple in Dehradun. Please spare at least 3 to 4 hours to see all 3 places located near this temple. You can have some very tasty local food here. Though it's bit far from the city and hard to find cabs from here (coming to this place is no issues at all). If you are in Dehradun, must visit this place at least once.

Kempty Falls in Mussoorie is a popular tourist destination that offers a stunning view of cascading waterfalls, pools and boating with vantage points and cafes. The site comprises seven waterfalls, which make for an awe-inspiring sight. Visitors can hike to the top to enjoy more breathtaking views of the falls. This attraction is perfect for groups of friends and families looking to spend quality time together. However, it may not be suitable for young children as it is located on a mountain.
The waterfall flows under a bridge. It's absolutely free to visit. You need to park you car slightly before or after the bridge. You can take the stairs and go to higher levels of the waterfall. There are shops where you can change and rent swimming trunks to take a dip in the waterfall. One such shop is absolutely free. There are also a few local food shops as well. Overall it's a good tourist attraction.

The Kempty falls itself is very pretty and the water appeared white and clear(just like you might have seen in some pictures). You can either walk or take a cable car ride to see the waterfall. You will see hundreds of people getting into the water and having fun. There are a few lookouts to to enjoy the waterfall and take pictures. Kempty Falls was only 5 kilometers from our hotel JW Marriott but I guess is a good 45-60mins. drive in a car from Mussoorie(depending on the traffic). Stop littering and save this wonderful spot for others to enjoy as well. The city has a task cut out for them to take action and tidy up this place which I believe is one of the attraction in Mussoorie!

We recently visited Kempty Falls with our family and had a wonderful time. The falls themselves are a stunning natural attraction, offering a refreshing and picturesque spot to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature. The sound of the water cascading down the rocks was both soothing and invigorating.
Apart from the falls, we were pleasantly surprised by the nearby market. It’s a great place to shop for wooden gifts and souvenirs. There was a wide variety of items, including beautifully crafted wooden artifacts, which made for perfect mementos. Additionally, the market had a good selection of items for ladies, ranging from accessories to clothing.
Overall, Kempty Falls is not just about the natural beauty but also offers a delightful shopping experience. It’s a perfect spot for a family outing, combining the joy of nature with a bit of local shopping.

What else is there left about waterfalls? Spend an amazing time here with a bunch of waterfalls, in total of combination of seven waterfalls.
You have to hike a little bit on top for more amazing views and waterfalls. The best place ever to enjoy with your friends and family.
Would not suggest to bring young kids as this is waterfall is one mountains. A reminder, don't forget to bring your trash with yourself, please be gentle with nature.

It's beautiful when you get there. However, getting there is not easy. Traffic, difficult walking, Also ropeway is available.
Ropeway price: 200/- per ticket
lockers and spare clothes are available so that you could go in the fall enjoy and get wet and then come back and change, avaliable at 50 to 100 rs.
So, whenever you visit keep 3-4 hours in total to be able to get here and enjoy. There is food and everything. And when you get here, Food stalls and cafes are also available in case you are hungry.

What a beautiful water fall. I saw a waterfall for the first time in my life and it was so beautiful. The water was too cold to handle. I even went into the water and got shower under the water falling down. It was so beautiful. If you don't have extra pair of cloth that's fine you can rent it easily from the waterfall location. There are many cloth vendors.

Kempty Falls is one the most popular tourist attraction and picnic spot in Mussoorie. Surrounded by high mountain cliffs.The pond formed at the bottom of the falls makes an excellent spot for swimming and bathing.Offering a stunning view of water stream cascading down from a great height, it divides into two main falls. Quite famous among the tourists as a picnic spot, the perennial Kempty waterfall is crowded almost throughout the year.

This is a must visit place in mussoorie, you can either reach here by ropeway or by stairs
The ropeway charges around 200 per person.
Ropeway is not too long so you can skip the ropeway and use the ropeway at bhatta falls as it is long and you can get an amazing view.

Very beautiful waterfall. And a huge walkway market where they sell tourist attractions and tea shops around.
But the place is not maintained at all, people spit everywhere and dumped waste.
And you will see rope way to the fall. It’s a very small rope way costs you .Rs.200 for one way. And won’t accept online payments.
May better walk to to the waterfall while going and return come in rope way.

It's awesome very calming
Loved the atmosphere there It was very soothing, although there were a lot of people and it always seemed a bit crowded, you may have to wait a little bit to take your pictures but believe me it's worth it,
. You can bathe under the waterfall and there's a good facility of keeping your goods in the locker and changing room so you can bath and keep your things away from water.
The scenes are very beautiful but the only drawback is you have to take too many stairs to reach there..
You can also enjoy the waterfalls above it they're small but very beautiful ❤️.

Waterfall is very nice. You can enjoy in clean water. Water is cold here but still it's worth to go. From parking you need to go to stairs. To reach waterfall, you need go down around 100 steps. There are costumes and changing rooms available near waterfall.
There is ropeway/cable car facility also. Charges are higher, for one side it's 200 per person. So you can take it while going up.

Beautiful and cool shops recommend getting there before 3pm so you have enough time for the gondola which closes at 5pm. Cool shops bit pricey but looks cool. Fun games and food. If you take kids keep them close as there are alot of monkeys and they snatch stuff but they got really close to my daughter bit scary.

It's way more commercialized and that too in such a way that the natural beauty is completely destroyed.
Don't waste your time visiting it.
Locals might say things otherwise because it contributes to their economy but you can't waste half of your day visiting there. Look for places that are less famous.

Enjoy the scenic view of the waterfall. Water is clean and cold but still it's worth to go. From parking you need to walk a little bit and go upstairs to reach the waterfall. If you want to chill and relax in the crystal clear water there are costumes and changing rooms available near the waterfall, they also provide a tier tube to chill in the pool.
There is a ropeway/cable car facility.
You can also pay for photoshoot as well.
Parking- ₹50 per two vehicles.

Tiger Fall -Chakrata
Nature & Parks
Hiking area
Waterfalls
Hilly walking trails lead to this remote, towering cascade framed by vegetation-covered rocks.
Most amazing getaway so far! This place is soo isolated and beautiful with a powerful nature presence and you feel every smell and every insect. I went with my family at August end and it was raining the magnitude of the tiger fall was 10 times the normal. It was so so good. Fortunately our camp was 100 metres away which was also helpful. We found the waterfall nearly empty and we clicked a lot of photos. After 12 pm people start to come a lot and it's hard to find space there. Week days are good to visit as weekends are unpredictably crowded. You have to pay 30 rs as an entry ticket. The stone paved way could be slippery in the fall area so be careful. You can bring your pets there. There is a small 1 km trek to the high view point where you can see details about tiger fall.
I suggest you bring your own car until the lowest point on a stone paved road.

Tiger falls is a hidden gem in Uttarakhand. You have to trek for about 1 km downhill to reach the actual falls by foot or take a precipitous route by car after you reach the destination. Please do not take the car unless you have a good local driver because the road is pretty bad. There is a railing and moderately well maintained stairs throughout that you can use to go down by foot. Returning can be a tiresome if you are not used to physical exertion. There are no shops or water points while going down. But there are small shops at the start. The falls is a nice sight to watch. There are some changing rooms and toilet near it but they are not maintained well. The place is not crowded because people have not yet discovered it. It is a matter of time till this place becomes crowded and dirty!!

It's a serene place, with an amazing location of the fall..the road till the fall is not good at all..
However you can still drive (prefer a car with good height clearance)..
The waterfall is totally worth it, especially when the water is in its full might !!
There are small shops close by, where you can get tea, Maggie etc...!!
Must go with the kids, no issue at all 😊
Abhinav Aswal — Google review
Small, but still worth it when i visited in summer.
Special note: there are two parking. One on top from where proper steps are going down to reach the falls. Another down near the falls and steps can be avoided. So when you step down from top parking it almost reaches the down parking. But on the way the journey is really good.
Recommendation: with elders, small kids - go directly to down parking.
It's a very tall fall so it makes the sound and that's how it's name originated, it sounds like the roar of a tiger when water falls from such a height.

Had an amazing time at the Tiger Falls( Largest Direct Falling Waterfall in India ). The roar of the falls is truly the exciting part as it falls from over hundreds of feet high. If you’re Lucky you would see Rainbows forming nearby adding to the beauty of the place.
Make Sure to go in an off season or when it’s less crowded as it spoils the Fun and experience to Relax peacefully. Sit on the rocks nearby and experience the beauty of nature🦋

More than 1km downhill walk, uphill is bit stressful.
Takes around 1 hr 30mins. But fantastic experience.
Option of going by car, kachha road but not worth if you wanna enjoy visits and make them memorable. Walk through village on slopes and stairs. Once you see the fall drop from approx 50m, you are spellbound watching the highest direct waterfall in India

Tiger Waterfall, a majestic spectacle in Chakrata's embrace,
Where nature's power cascades with elegance and grace.
Roaring and plunging from heights above,
It embodies the untamed spirit of the wild, pure and tough.

A breathtaking sight that captivates all.
The mighty Tiger Waterfall, a sight to behold,
As its waters gush down, stories of nature unfold.

The waterfall is nice and not very crowded,
The water is very cold and clean.
There are two ways to reach the water either you can take your vehicle but that path is extremely narrow only one car can pass at a time and also at a very steep angle or you also do a hike. It is almost a 1km hike.
Other than that the waterfall is beautiful.

Changing rooms and other facilities were not so clean, we had to change outside. The fall is pretty but the crowd is too much. It's very refreshing to take a dip in the water though.

We visited this place in June 2023. Overall a must visit destination for nature enthusiasts.

Tiger Fall is a hidden gem in the hills of Chakrata, Uttarakhand. It is one of the highest waterfalls in India, with a height of 50 meters. The waterfall is surrounded by lush greenery and rocky terrain, creating a stunning contrast of colors and textures.
The sound of the water crashing on the rocks is soothing and exhilarating at the same time. To reach the waterfall, one has to trek for about 2 km through the forest, which is an enjoyable and adventurous experience. The trek offers scenic views of the mountains, the valley, and the flora and fauna.
The waterfall is a perfect spot for a picnic, a bath, or a photo session. The water is cold and refreshing, and the mist and the rainbow add to the beauty of the place. Tiger Fall is a must-visit for nature lovers, trekkers, and photographers. It is a place where one can relax, explore, and have fun in the lap of nature. Tiger Fall is a memorable and rewarding destination for anyone who visits Chakrata.

It was historical place, In past there was two friends Haaji Shah and Lal das. Haaji Shah was Muslim and Lal das was hindu , both are very close friends . When Haaji Shah went to Haj In Arab , Lal Das became very sad and when Lal das went to Haridwar , Haaji Shah became sad .
One day Lal das said to Haaji Shah if I will make your same Masjid like in Arab then will you Stop to go there . Haaji Shah said yes ofcourse .
Lad das made Same Masjid like in Arab in night with his tapasya ..
Next day Haaji Shah became very happy , and he thought I should also do something for Lal das so he will not have to go to Haridwar.
Then he also did one majic with his power that he earned from Nawaj ..
He brought Ganga ji at same place that river called pawn dhoi( foot cleaner) . Because when Lal das was in samdhi river touch his feet to awak him so that river called Pawn dhoi .
So after that Both friends will not go to Haridwar and Arab. They live together ..
That the one of palce in India where we can see the true friends of humanity ..
Now a day at this Place Mr. Ajay Gupta( Business Man) is doing the construction to make Big Akshardhaam Mandir ..

A beautiful gurudwara located next to river Yamuna. the gurudwara has a lot of historical significance for the Sikh community. there is an very interesting story that roaring Yamuna does makes any noise when it passes by the gurudwara, as it was intoned to pass smoothly by Guru Gobind Singh ji .

I recently had the privilege of visiting the Gurudwara, and I must say it was a truly remarkable experience.
The Gurudwara's architecture exuded grace and grandeur, showcasing the rich Sikh heritage. The pristine white walls, adorned with intricate designs, created a tranquil atmosphere conducive to introspection and prayer.
The langar was an embodiment of selfless service and unity. The delicious vegetarian food was prepared with utmost love and devotion and the volunteers humility and dedication were inspiring.
The prayer hall was a sanctuary of solace. The melodious recitation of the Guru Granth Sahib, accompanied by soul-stirring hymns, transported me to a realm of spiritual bliss. The ambiance was filled with devotion and reverence, creating an atmosphere conducive to deep contemplation.
I highly recommend a visit to this Gurudwara to anyone seeking solace, spiritual enlightenment, and a glimpse into the Sikh way of life.

This place is one of the key attractions of the city, and must say they have a strong internal control system and one can even stay there for the whole day without getting bored listening to 'शबद' .
You must have Langar prashad there specially Curry chawal and yes Yamuna view from the back side of Gurudwara is not something you'd want to miss.
One lesser star is for that area which is crowdy and without any maintainance outside of the gurudwara.
Some places are not just peaceful they are spiritually beautiful too and this place is one of them. LOTS OF LOVE for the Community..... ❣️

Got the opportunity to visit this holy place along with my family on a pretty cold Sunday in January 2023. It's located very near to the border of Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand. It is said Guru Gobind Singh Ji stayed here for more than 4.5 years and wrote many religious books. This place exhibits a few weapons and pens used by Guru Gobind Singh Ji. Just like any other Gurudwara this one is immaculate and peaceful. Situated on the banks of Yamuna River, it offers a serene view of the riverbed and mountains. Must visit the ghat and the Hanuman Mandir located below.

Gurudwara Paonta Sahib is a revered shrine of the Sikh religion. This sacred shrine not only renders a spiritual comfort, but also offers us an insight into how Sikhism has sustained. The place got its name either from the fact that Guru Gobind Singh set his foot here or because he lost an ornament here that he used to wear on his foot.
As per stories, the Gurudwara was once visited by Guru Gobind Singh Ji, the tenth guru of the Sikhs. The Sikh Guru came to Sirmour on the invitation of the Raja Medini Prakash and was so impressed with the courtesy of the king that he decided to spend the next four years at Poanta and left a written account of his life in the kingdom, which he described as the happiest years of his life.
It is said that, once Raja Medini Prakash and Guru ji were exploring the place. On their excursion, Guruji was so much impressed that he decided to construct a camp on the bank of the river. Guruji laid the foundation of this holy city with his own scarred hands and named it Paon-tikka, which is known as Paonta Sahib today. As a token of respect and gratitude, Raja Medini Prakash decided to build a Gurudwara on the bank of Yamuna River. Before leaving the Gurudwara, Guruji fought many battles against some of the neighbouring hamlets.

Beautiful place. Very well managed and organised. Can be crowded during some days. Mostly crowded during the weekends. Beautiful river view at the rear. We had awesome langar. Car parking is also available which is free of cost. There are shop’s available outside as well for souvenirs. If coming from Uttarakhand side, then state entry tax needs to be paid at the barrier. Wahe guru ji ! 🙏🏻

Paonta Sahib is a significant religious and historical town located in the Sirmaur district of the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh. It holds great religious importance for Sikhs as it is associated with Guru Gobind Singh Ji, the tenth Sikh Guru. Guru Gobind Singh Ji spent several years in Paonta Sahib and composed many Sikh religious texts, including parts of the Guru Granth Sahib, during his stay there.
Some key attractions in Paonta Sahib include the Gurudwara Paonta Sahib, which is a major pilgrimage site for Sikhs, and the Yamuna Temple, located on the banks of the Yamuna River. The town is known for its serene and picturesque surroundings, making it a popular destination for both religious and nature enthusiasts.

Surrounded by sal forest and on the banks of river Yamuna, the historic town of Paonta Sahib (350m) was founded by the Tenth Sikh guru, Guru Gobind Singh. When only 16 years old, the Guru left Anandpur Sahib and on the invitation of Raja Maidini Prakash of Sirmour, lived at this beautiful spot for over four years. The historic gurudwara commemorates his stay and interestingly the water of the Yamuna fall silent below this which happened at the Guru’s behest. The word Paonta means ‘Space for a foothold’.
Paonta Sahib is connected by road. From Renukaji. It is 81 km via Nahan and 60 km via Rajban. From Dehradun, it is 44 km. The closest railheads are at Ambala and Dehradun. The nearest airports are at Chandigarh and Dehradun. Taxis/buses are available for Paonta Sahib at all places. In winter, the temperature can hover around freezing point when heavy woolens are required. Summer temperature are high and cottons are recommended.

We visited Gurudwara Paonta Sahib on our trip to dehradun and it was our ist destination and I just mesmerized by the beauty of the sculpture ❤️📿
This is what is called God's way of beckoning traveller's and we entered the Gurudwar...
Tranquility and charming simplicity were the immediate impression one sensed as we proceeded to the inner sacred precincts...
There was a sense of calmness and serenity and all external noises receded to a remote background
The complex has a level overlooking the Yamuna and the river looked extraordinary peaceful for the mighty river Yamuna..and was later told of the story behind the taming of the Yamuna by the 10th Guru Gobind Singh who founded and resided for 3 years at Paonta Sahib.

The Renuka Lake popularly/ religiously referred to as the Renuka ji is located not very far from Nahan and Paunta sahab. We were disappointed to find the two different approaches to the Lake to and fro were NOT at all maintained and the "road" conditions were pathetic.
The boats were easily available which needed to be self operated. How I wish operators were also available and the surrounding roads could be manned by lake security to avoid any mishap.
Stay arrangements are also there. I am sure if there is a strong will the place could be further developed for more tourist attraction which at present seems to be driven more by the religious sentiments.

Himachal hold a lot of stories and mythologies just like other hills. Renuka ji is one such place to learn about and cherish.
Manage your expectations with the boating sport as it's closed due to covid and less footfall, also plan itineraries beforehand.
Government has done a perfect job to maintain the historical place by a circuit of wildlife zoo for entertainment.

Wonderful place for a weekend visit. The walk around the lake is simply a refreshing experience. The sound of birds chirping, the noise of monkeys (sometimes frightening too!), The beautiful 🐟 fish in the water (you can see them playing next to the bank/shallow water). Walk is around 4kms and i think i heard someone saying that this is largest lake in Himachal that is not watered by any stream.
Jai shri ram, jai shri hanuman,
This temple is the holy abode of Shri Panchmukhi (5 faces) hanuman ji.
Situated in Bilaspur, near Yamunanagar in Haryana.

Spiti Snow Chain Drive 6th Feb 2020
Mystic Mountains Chapter 1
Being the newest addition to a group who regularly travel together, and the only female in a group of men of different age groups , I had my own fears. But to my surprise, Everything was so well organised without any hiccups that it made this trip very memorable.Rahul aka MAT and Rohit made sure every smallest of things were taken care before being addressed.. At the end their years of experience with hills counts.
Thanks PLANETWAYROUND for creating such good memories . Looking forward to join many more trips in future and for sure winter spiti again next year..

The trip was totally amazing! We all knew the risks but what we didn't know was that Rahul and his team has a backup plan for every single thing that could go wrong. That's the kind of experience these people have. Stays were in the best options available in each place. And the things you learn from the places and these people are the things that stay with you a really long time. They tried to accommodate all our special requests too. Rahul used to work as an Ayurvedic doctor, he has learnt homeo medicine and he also has good knowledge about English medicine, so I should say you are in good hands even when it comes to health concerns. He carries a briefcase full of medicines.
If you really want an experience of a lifetime then just go for it!

Experienced my first Ladhak trip with Plant Way Round which was led by Rahul. I had the pleasure of being in lead vehicle with him and got to witness the wealth of knowledge he has accumulated over two decades of travelling Ladhak.
Not only did he make sure we got to experience the trip as organically as we could, he also made sure to keep us away from tourist traps.
The locations we visited were surreal and the stay facilities left us wanting for none.
I would highly recommend Planet Way Round.

Very Experienced and knowledgeable team. I went to them on a Spiti self drive trip in December23 , very well planned and comfortable trip. They have extensive knowledge of places so apart from enjoying the drive they will make you explore on foot also. They will make sure that everyone in a group feels like a family. From making you taste local foods to making sure everyone is warmly tucked in there rooms. At such an high altitude and extreme weather there car breakdown support was also very helpful..

Our group of friends, the Dandekars, embarked on a winter adventure with Planet Way Round for an Overland Himalayas 4x4 Winter Spiti Drive, and the experience was nothing short of extraordinary. This self-drive expedition redefined our perception of travel, transforming it into a profound exploration of the unseen, guided by the expert hands of Doc Rahul (Shiva), Saurabh (IndraDev), and Tushar.
Planet Way Round demonstrated an unparalleled commitment to ensuring our journey was not just about reaching destinations but about delving deep into the heart of Spiti. Their in-depth knowledge of the region enriched our experience, pushing us to explore hidden gems both on wheels and on foot. The team went above and beyond, taking care of the minutest details to ensure none of us fell behind, allowing us to fully savor every moment.
The unexpected snowfall added a magical touch to our adventure, and the arrangements made by Planet Way Round were impeccable. From hotels to cozy homestays, every accommodation was carefully selected to provide comfort even in the freezing temperatures.
Their dedication became evident when faced with a landslide situation. Despite having booked a luxurious hotel, they swiftly arranged an excellent homestay, even purchasing new heaters to ensure our safety and warmth in the challenging conditions of minus 10 degrees. This thoughtful and quick response truly set them apart.
Our journey with Planet Way Round was not just a trip; it was an offroading odyssey filled with surprises, laughter, and unforgettable moments. Stopping in the middle of nowhere with only snow around us, enjoying hot tea, coffee, and freshly cooked Poha – these are the experiences that make Planet Way Round the best in the business.
As we eagerly anticipate our next adventure to Adi Kailash with the Planet Way Round team, we can confidently say they have earned our trust to deliver the best experiences. Whatever our dreams may be, they are ready to turn them into reality, making every expedition with them a journey of a lifetime. Hats off to the team, and here's to many more thrilling adventures in the future!

I highly recommend PWR (planet way round), not only because they are awesome at their work, but while they do that, all the travellers are treated like family, giving utmost priority to all your needs - id rather put it as fantasies, cuz some of them are (next to) impossible to achieve, yet they’d do it!

Visiting the temple offers a serene escape amidst breathtaking vistas of Shimla's mountain chains and Sirmour's Rajgarh. The journey is an adventure itself, with narrow roads adding to the thrill. While parking is available, it's recommended to visit on sunny days to fully appreciate the majestic views, as clouds may obstruct visibility during monsoon. The tranquility and beauty of the temple surroundings make it a must-visit destination, albeit with a thrilling drive. Overall, a remarkable experience blending nature's splendor with spiritual solace, ensuring unforgettable memories for all who venture there.

Kali Tibba Temple in Chail boasts of breathtaking views of the lush green and snow capped Himalayas.
You can reach here by taxi or by govt/pvt buses which ply from Solan. Or you can reach here by bus and then book taxi to show you around. We got taxi for 700Rs which showed us Kali Tibba, Stone Temple, worlds highest cricket ground etc.
The route to Kali Tibba Temple is gorgeous in itself, flanked by tall pine trees and partly reminds of Hatu Peak in Narkanda.
Once you reach the temple, you're greeted with awe inspiring visuals of nature in it's full glory.
You'll find people taking pictures.
It is a must visit for the people who want to visit new places other than Shimla etc.

Chail Palace, a refined establishment set in a magnificent 19th-century palace, offers diverse amenities such as a restaurant and bar, alongside tennis courts. This genteel hotel presents an array of attractions to explore, including the renowned Chail Wildlife Sanctuary and Kali Ka Tibba. The area's mesmerizing rainfall provides an awe-inspiring spectacle that adds charm to the visit depending on the time of year.
Great place to spend time with family and friends. It is also a kid friendly place as there is a huge garden with swings!
The lush garden and pine trees provide soothing and peaceful energy. The food at the restaurant is nice although the service needs improvement. So, please expect some delay in food delivery post orders.

Can visit here for a day trip. Staying here may not be as enjoyable as other resorts due to the age and maintenance and even the cost of the property. Rooms are royal but not practical. Still, one can get a different experience from regular hotel/resort stays.
Good:
- Tall ceiling rooms and very roomy due to large windows that may give snow peak view.
- Good room service and reasonable prices for food and drinks.
- staff is friendly and tries their best to make the stay comfortable.
- some rooms have fireplaces and are a must try even at the added cost in winters.
- feels like being in touch with part of history
Bad:
- Upholstery is not in good shape
- Fridge is not stocked enough and has age-old beverages without fizz.
- some bathrooms have really inefficient exhaust, and doors do not provide full privacy due to the gap in the doors.
- food may be good or average, depending on the availability of raw materials.
- given the price point, breakfast spread is not up to the mark.

''trip to Chail. Beautiful,huge temple! Developed by one person single-handedly in last 40 years. The feeling you get once you reach there is difficult to explain. Was stunned to visit the temple. Not so popular place and road to reach there is also narrow but one must not get demotivated by this. This is once in a lifetime kind of experience!😊🙏🏻

I didn't stay here, but took a paid tour. I am glad I didn't stay here & chose other property. As the Palace is not at all managed, the rooms were just big in size ,apart from that nothing was maintained or there was no palace feeling as per the prices of the room & they didn't even have enough staff to take care of the people. So I won't recommend it for the purpose of the stay.

Entry cost per person is 200/-. With this entry price there is nothjng additional available as a complimentary services. Neither any food items, nor any guide is available. You just pay to enter the palace. It is just like a palace with a garden where you can spend some peaceful time. There are notes and written documents from where you can get to know about the place. The place is beautiful but entry ticket still seems to be on higher side.
Further, there are rooms available in the palace for stay purposes.

Place is awsome and worth visiting to relax..
We went to have lunch and it was awful experience,
Too busy to go , the waiter was rude and couldn't care less for the guest... He wasn't even interested if we wanted more chapati n all
Lunch best avoided ans place is overtly busy, for its guest.

130 years old palace but seems like recently build, such a nice atmosphere inside the palace, love the old vintage furniture, cafeteria also available inside the palace, can also book rooms inside it. The thing that i love the most is the bar. Out side it there's one kiosk where u can have snacks in the chilling whether. You have to pay ₹200 per person to enter into the palace. You have to come outside the palace if you want to talk to someone over the phone because of low network. Room prices are very high starting from ₹3500 to ₹25300

The palace is very beautiful with lots of mirrors & luxurious monarch decorations inside the palace. Outside is very green and lush where you can spend amazing time and click many photos.
The location has got a big trailing pathways in between the forest.

Misguided Tourist Location
1. Its a hotel which is maintained by Himachal Govt.
2. Its not a sight seeing place. They charge Rs. 200 per person to enter this building and its pathetic building.
Only lobby area is available and allowed to be seen by visitors and rest of the property is just rooms.
The lunch restaurant will remind you of railway station canteen or parliament canteen.
Do not waste your money on sight seeing of this place.
Its just a government hotel and there is nothing else there.

Entry cost per person is 200/-. At this price they should be providing a guided tour or they should provide a 200/- coupon that people could redeem in cafe for tea/snacks.
There would be no one to greet you or guide you around. Its like visiting any other public place, nothing special. Didn't get any palace like feel. It felt like a normal guest house with a garden.
Honestly, the palace is not worth visiting. Poorly maintained. There is only one cafe in the garden and it serves machine made tea!
If entry was free then you could think about visiting but trust me there is nothing to see here. Don't know why they are charging 200/- for entry only. Absolutely not worth it.

The palace is not a place to visit by paying entry fee of Rs 200 per head. Nothing but cheating to collect entry fee when all the facilities have been converted to hotel and not open to visitors. Highly recommend not to visit.

A very famous tourist place located in Chail and around 2 hours drive from Shimla. Entry fee was 100 per person when we visited here. Parking is available.

The, Chail Palace, Palace Road, Chail, Himachal Pradesh 173217, India
Manki Point, also known as Sanjeevni Hanuman Temple, is a small Hindu temple located on a hilltop in Kasauli. The temple is dedicated to Lord Hanuman and is home to many monkeys. Visitors can enjoy sweeping views of the surrounding area from the top of the hill. The temple was recently reopened after being closed due to Covid-19 restrictions. Visitors are not allowed to bring cameras or phones and must deposit all bags at the check point before proceeding on foot.
So peaceful and beautiful place to visit. It is on peak of the hills of Kasauli.
You need to be fully vaccinated otherwise you won't be allowed to pass the security.
Phones, baggages, snacks and electronic devices are not allowed in there because of the increased cases of monkeys snatching these items.
Taxis' fare is very high.
Sahil Garg — Google review
A 40 minute walk from the parking stand and a 15 steep minute climb from Air Force Station gate. The temple closes at 5pm, so plan your visit accordingly. Mobile phones/other electronic items have to be deposited at the AFS gate.

Kasauli Lower mall Road to Monkey (Manki) point is about 4 KM walk (restricted area, no taxi allowed). After about 2 KM at check point (area controlled by Indian Air Force) all electronic items and bags must be handed overed. Atop small but steep mountain visited "Hanmun temple", small cafeteria, wash rooms are available. Tranquil views with lots pine trees enroute and nice flowers around the walk was quite manageable, had awesome experience.

We rented out cab small car for Rs500, including 5 members in celerio. 10 min rides through car.
Beautiful temple situated at top hill, you need to trek for 15-25 minutes, trek is easy.
Your phone will be submitted at gate entry because it is air force area so phones,cameras are prohibited inside this area.
If you are carrying prashad be alrert because monkey will snatch it while going back, so hide it properly otherwise monkey will snatch it.
Rahul Madhadia — Google review
There is Hanuman temple at highest peak of hill.
1. Take a cab from kasauli market, it takes 10 minutes to reach there.
2. Its military area so you are not allowed to take any electronics gadgets even phone, smart watch, charger, airpods.
3. At entry gate you can deposit your phone and bag with charges.
4. After that they will give you ID card and ask for checking.
5. Its takes 15-20 minutes to climb only through stairs.
6. You can enjoy beauty of nature in minimum 1 hour and maximum 2 hour.
Note - Only temple is there and canteen is also there at top.
Bohar Singh — Google review
To reach this point one can either get a taxi or walk from Mall road. It's around 4km if you want to walk and it's doable for almost everyone. Once you reach the main entry point, you'll have to show an ID card and deposit any bag and electronics equipment (smartphone/smartwatch/cameras) as most of the reviews mentioned. There is a small deposit fee (50 for a bag with 2 phones). From the main entrance you'll still need to walk 5 mins to reach the main stairway, from where you can get to the top. The view at the top is great but if you're unlucky (like me) and go when there's foggy weather you won't be able to fully appreciate it. The only flaw is that there's no decent food points in the whole complex. The closest one is on the Mall road.
Jay Singh — Google review
Mandir photos are not available bcz all electronic devices were submitted by Air Force bcz of safety reasons.. Beware of Monkeys please don't carry any items above not even a bottle of water or bag... They ll snatch it for sure and can even hurt you. Leave the Prasad of Mandir also above only.

We have to take a cab from market to Manki point
It takes 50₹ per person one side.
Up there mobile is not allowed and around 500 steps are there upto the top of hill. The view is just awesome.
Above 60 age are advised to think thrice before going up as the steps are inclined and very arduous task for elders.
Sushant Kumar — Google review
The best view point I must say, the place was open after staying closed due to Covid. No camera or phones are allowed, we have to deposit all bags at the check point and then proceed on foot. Situated in a defence area, the climb atop the hill is fun, there are steps in few pathways... but when you reach the top the view is magical and a must see... spending time at the top is very peaceful. Must go. No phones were allowed hence no photos to upload.
Jiji John — Google review
The peace at the temple is worth the climb.
Lunch time at the pass issuing counter is 1:00 pm to 1:30 pm.
Please make sure not to carry anything that is not permitted. As far as water bottle is concerned, carry as small as possible. There are monkeys on the path and will snatch anything in your hand but will not bother you if you don't bother them.

A divine experience. It is approx 500 metres walk inside the Airforce Complex before you reach the base from where there is an approx 500 metres climb up the hill to the temple. The climb is steep but is not as difficult as some people sound in the reviews. There are enough benches enroute…. one can catch a breath whenever required and continue. It is a proper covered, concrete paved way, interspersed with stairs. There is a restaurant and a Prasad Shop on top. There are a few monkeys enroute but they are used to humans and do not disturb you….. but will grab any eatables…. so do not carry ANY eatables….. even the Prasad on the way down !! Apart from the divine experience, the view from top is breathtaking.
Girish Kumar — Google review
The temple is almost 2.5 kms from mall road parking. You can get taxis from the parking area,personal vehicles are not allowed. The taxis will cost INR 200 one side. You should carry a small bag with you to deposit your phone and smart watch at the counter.
There are staircases and ramp to reach the top. It's a good height of around 500ms to climb to reach the temple. You will take about 30-45 minutes to reach on the top.
You can buy Prasad on the top itself. There is a small shop where you can eat snacks but don't forget to carry cash because you will not have for phone with you and card doesn't work here.
It's quite windy at the top so don't forget to carry a stall or a light sweater based on the weather you can decide
The entry is till 1PM in the afternoon and than it reopens at 2PM. The temple is not closed just at the entry gate where you get passes these people are on lunch break.
It's advised to wear shoes because the stairs are Rocky and good distance to walk.
While coming back as well you can get taxis. Same INR 200 each side.
Be careful with the monkeys. Don't carry eatables which are visible to them. You can have something in your bag or pocket.
Overall It's a good experience

1. They take your phones and charge 10 rupees each phone.
2. They take your bags and you've to pay 85 rupees for its "protection"
3. You can't even put your phone in the bag, they still charge for your phones.
Went there thinking it's some monkey point for fun, turned out it was manki baat point with no modi jimm 0/10 I don't recommend.
plus it's a scam they take your phones so you can't even take pictures there.

If you're a lord hanuman's "Bhakt" you must visit this temple once in your life.
Manki point or the sanjeevni hanuman mandir is situated inside the air force area in kasauli, himachal and you're not allowed to carry any electronic items inside the airforce area, they provide with paid lockers to keep your stuff.
Then there are mandir steps of 500m but on mount height. It's quite exhausting climbing those steps up, but when you reach on the top that feeling of temple and view from that top is just mind blowing.
Legend behind temple:
The legend says that during Ramayan, when lord Lakshman was injured and Hanuman ji was asked to carry sanjeevni for him, his one foot touched this mount top and hence people made a temple there dedicating to him.
The Gilbert Trail is a scenic nature trail that winds through lush hillsides and offers diverse bird sightings along with stunning views of the surrounding valleys. The trail is secured by personnel and prohibits vehicle access. Visitors should bring their own food and water for the 2 to 3-hour hike, which culminates in a mesmerizing view at the top. The trail starts near Sunset Point and continues for an undetermined distance before requiring hikers to return on the same path.
Great track for nature lovers. Lovely experience.. Peaceful environment 🙂

The hike is amazing, walking through the trail all I could hear was the sounds of the woods. The walk to the view is simply mesmerizing and the view at the top is a must go. Time stands still at this place. The walk inside to the trail is manned by a security and no vehicles are allowed. No food and water available so need to carry. Good to spend 2 to 3 hours hiking and lazing at the view. Must visit.

It was a fun experience. I had the opportunity to go to the gilbert trail in Kasauli. It is a moderate level trail with some cliffs and some part of uneven road. There is no supplies available on the trail so that is something one going there needs to arrange for themselves. There are couple relaxation spots and some really good sightseeing spots. Definitely a must go.

Gilbert point is a place which offers both the thrill of adventure along with the tranquility of nature. This place is a perfect amalgamation of solitude, adventure and fun. It primarily have 3 points. Sunrise point, Sunset point, Lovers/suicide point. The trek to suicide point is most enjoyable. Undoubtedly the best sightseeing point of Kasauli but not for old people with joint problem and little kids. It is within the army area, hence movement is restricted. The road past sunset point will take you straight to Heritage market. It will take 25-30 minutes by foot from Kasauli Mall Road and 7-8 minute drive.

We were staying at around 1 km from this trail, so we happen to visit here twice - evening and morning. Luckily the weather was very pleasant as it was drizzling very lightly and added to our experience. We were in a group of 6 with kids, so we did not cover the full trail. We covered it partially and took some pitstops to catch up on our breath which was being swayed away not just due to tiredness, but also due to beautiful landscape surrounding us. It was wonderful to sit there in nature's lap and smile at beautiful gifts she bestows upon us. It was cloudy so we couldn't capture sunset or sunrise, but no regrets!

Nice track for nature lovers but there were no signs at all. At some point I felt risky going ahead alone. Little info should be added by the tourism management.
Sunset Point, located in the popular hiking area of Kasauli, offers a unique and breathtaking view of misty wooded peaks and valleys. This lookout point is accessible for all ages with a one-kilometer trek that leads to an extraordinary sight of the sun setting against a colorful sky. Visitors can enjoy multiple points from which to witness this fascinating view while sipping on tea or simply taking in the beauty of nature.
Best place for sunset.
Fascinating view.
Most beautiful view in evening and night time.

The place is absolutely worth the trail. The walk is about 3 kms and there are two roads leading to the same point. One is from the side of a hill on the edge, where you can see the rest of the valley and mountains . The other is from an inside road where cars usually go. They both meet at a road where you'll find a tuck shop , you can get a couple of snacks options and juice and water there. And then just about 500 mtrs ahead you see the sunset point. It has a couple of seating spots. If you're early, you can occupy one. The view is breathtaking and it gets pretty cold and windy (feels like under 10°) so make sure you carry a cap, or muffler and an extra layer to cover yourself. There's swings and a bathroom as well but it doesn't have running water. Could be a bit more maintained. Post sunset , it can get dark very quickly but the way back isn't lonely at all since many people walk back from there. The sky on your trail back turns into many hues of warm and cold tones. Spent hours here in this quaint and serene spot.

Sunset Point in Kasauli is a unique place. It's friendly for all ages to wait at, for the sun to set. The walk to the point is a trudge about a kilometer. It's worth it. Noticed that the sun doesn't set, it goes into the background and merges in the sky in beautiful colors yellow, orange, brown......extraordinary !!!!

Amazing experience of sunset here. The lights, shades, and colors that one experiences here are beyond words. Uncle's tea is a relief here after the long trek to this point. Reach a bit early to have a better viewing spot as it gets crowded around the sunset.
Washrooms could be cleaner as they are paid...elderly people would definitely enjoy the view but reaching there could be a challenge. If paid golf cart service can be arranged, then it would be great for them.
Request to all: Please do not litter this place as it is one of the cleaner places among sunset points.

It is a nice walk reaching to the sunset point. The views are amazing from here. There are some swings/Jhula for children. Public toilet is there which you can only find at this place only throughout Kasauli.
People sit here, click pictures and enjoy their drinks/chips.
Overall it is worth going there if you really want to enjoy walking because it is almost 2 km. walking from the main market.
You cannot go on your bike or car, it is a cantonment area so you have to walk only throughout the Kasauli.

Its a nice walk up till the sunset point in Kasauli. Its a nice tourist place but to reach there you need to book taxi from Kasauli as your car is not allowed in cantonment area. Your car will be parked in the parking and you will have to walk till old Kasauli heritage Mall road. For sunset point as well as manki point you will need a local taxi which will charge around 300 to 500 rs for return fare. Sunset point is around 3 km from city centre and the driver will drop you at the starting point from where you have to walk around 500 mtrs which is a beautiful walk.

I visited Gilbert Trail (also known as Suicide Point), Sunset point and Church. You need to do easy trek of 12-15 mins to reach to Gilbert Trail. View point is beautiful. Try to reach there within 3:30 pm. Spend some time and then come back towards Sunset point. Awesome view. On return, you can visit Church & Mull Road (Heritage Market). Taste Bun Samosa at Narinder Sweets (Tannu). It’s different taste from normal samosa. You will enjoy.
Adding photos for you.
The Christ Church in Kasauli, built during British rule, is a historic church featuring stained-glass windows and a clock tower. Nature and peace enthusiasts should visit this beautiful place located near the bus/taxi stand. Although weekends can be crowded, weekdays offer a peaceful atmosphere to enjoy the roadside food stalls serving momos and coffee. It's advisable to bring warm clothing due to the chilly weather at times.
Awesome experience!
I love the beauty of this place.
If you are a nature lover..if you are a peace lover then turn your steering towards Kasauli.
Church is just adjacent to the bus/taxi stand and it’s beautiful you will love to stay inside the church.
There is some rush on weekends. On weekdays it’s very peaceful and beautiful.
You will love the food of roadside stalls..momos, coffee etc.
Bring some warm clothes..sometimes it’s very chill there.

Christ Church, Kasauli, Solan, Himachal Pradesh, earlier an Anglican Church, was built in 1853 and managed by Church of North India (CNI) since 1970. Built of dressed sandstone, the church has a cruciform floor plan. The fine-stained glass windows above the high altar depict the Christ on the cross. This central window is flanked by those depicting Joseph and Mary. A side altar has windows with Saint Barnabas and Saint Francis of Assisi. The latter is considered to be the patron saint of animals and the natural environment; not unexpectedly, the window here depicts him with doves at his feet. Complete with arches and buttresses, the church is Kasauli’s landmark and stands tall as you enter the town.
The distinctive church of the architecture includes a clock tower with a sundial in the front, main hall, cruciform floor, beautiful stained glass windows and an aisle which will lead to the beautiful altar sculpture, in which Jesus Christ is bound by Joseph and Mary. There are stained glasses over the altar image of Jesus Christ which depicts the Crucifixion where the image of Christ is flanked by those of Joseph and Mary.
Location: Right at the center of Kasauli; the town was developed around it.
Cleanliness: The area is maintained clean.
Parking: Near the multi level parking.
Overall, must visit once in your lifetime.

This church looks really amazing from both outside as well as inside as this church was made during the British rule period. It's foundation is still strong. The church use to be so much quiet and calm from inside. You can go and sit here whether Inside or outside you'll find it peace . It's covered with nature from all sides and that's the best thing about. If you visit kasauli do come here. Church is nearby bus stand and mall road .

The Mall Road in Kasauli is one of the major attractions of this town. There are two parts including the Upper Mall and the Lower Mall.
The Upper Mall offers a few shops and eateries, but the most attractive factor about it is the beautiful views that it promises. The splendid scenic views and the rolling hills, coupled with a couple of historic monuments make the Upper Mall a must visit.
The lower mall on the other hand, is full of small shops and cafes, perfect to sit down and enjoy a few local dishes.
The famous Church is also on the mall road. From Mall road you can visit sunrise point, sunset point, monkey point. But either you have to walk down or take a local taxi. You cannot drive by your own car as private vehicles are restricted unless you hold permit to drive to these points.

Christ Church in Kasauli is a stunning and historic place of worship that has stood the test of time and remains an important landmark in the town's rich cultural heritage. Built by the British in the 19th century, this beautiful church is a perfect blend of colonial and local architecture and offers a unique and unforgettable experience.
The church's location, amidst the picturesque surroundings of Kasauli, adds to its charm and beauty. The serene and tranquil environment of the church is a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the town, and the panoramic views of the surrounding hills and valleys are breathtaking.

The Christ church near the entrance to the main parking lot of the heritage market is one of the oldest churches in the region. Simply looking at it gives you a feeling of how the area must have been in the 19th century, with the old rustic church architecture maintained to the present day.
It is on the same route that leads to Lover's Lane and sunset point. At the entrance itself, you can see that it was constructed in 1844. From the inside, the church is very well-maintained and beautiful. It has a comfortable sitting space with benches for people who wish to sit and pray.
The roof also has a beautiful chandelier, and the main altar is directly visible from the church's main door as well. The place becomes even more beautiful in the winter since it is covered with fog on the hilltop, and you can feel the old Venetian architecture inside—a must-visit place at Kasauli.

The church's location, amidst the picturesque surroundings of Kasauli, adds to its charm and beauty. The serene and tranquil environment of the church is a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the town, and the panoramic views of the surrounding hills and valleys are breathtaking.

Beautiful church. So peaceful. Not much crowded even on weekend at evening time. Must visit when in kasauli. Take only 2 minutes to reach here from mall road. But if coming from some hotel, then the roads are lot crowded and better come before 4 in evening. The architecture is so mesmerizing. Line is not inside the church but on outer walls for pictures during sunset.

Must visit places at Kasauli. This church is the oldest church in Kasauli and the entire Himachal Pradesh. Built by Britishers, and still maintained so well. This beautiful church has a rich ~200 year old history.
Candles used here are made specially and brought here. Usually church open late by 12 PM and runs till 8 PM. So make your visit accordingly.

Waheguru ji.
A peaceful religious point (Gurudwara) associated with 6th Sikh guru, Guru Hargobind Sahib ji. He stayed here for 1 night while going to Gwalior jail from Amritsar. And on the request of local people the Guru dug the spot in this location to pour out holy water called Jal.

So peaceful and calm place. Moreover, there is enough space for parking.
The Manji Sahib Gurdwara is located at Kaith Majri near National Highway-1 where Guru Hargobind Sahib g stayed while on his way to meet Emperor Jahangir and the villagers of the nearby Khurampur Majri complained about the scarcity of drinking water then Guru Sahib g encouraged them to dig a baoli.
You can take holi water from baoli with you and can listen to kirtan that ultimately help you to relax your mind.

Very calm and serene place. Visited this place during my SSC exam. The place is beautiful especially at night. There's a pond behind the main Gurudwara which is lovely. They have good room facility to stay at night. Only 300 for a night. Rooms are spacious and they are also clean as well. Although the top most rooms can feel a little hot in summer. But it's the ideal place to stay if you are going for an exam.

This is more than just a lake with lots of fun things to do. For starters, there are several food kiosks with moderate prices and a wide range of selections.
Boating is the main attraction, and there are various alternatives available, including paddle, row, and shikhara boats. The view is spectacular, and there are various additional activities available, such as rock climbing and mini swings, to help you unwind. This is the most crowded spot in Chandigarh, yet it is also the most beautiful. You may unwind and enjoy the scenery while spending the evening with family or friends at a reasonable fee. The boating time is half an hour, but it was well worth it for a paddle with the choice of two or four people in a boat. This is a must-see place in Chandigarh.

Great place for hangout. It's a tourist place. People who came Chandigarh from other areas, always visit Sukhna Lake. The view of sukhna lake in evening is amazing. When I went there, I just sat on the boundary to feel the silence and calmness of that place. Along the Sukhna lake there's a long route for walking.

Sukhna Lake in Chandigarh is a sizable lake, and the best time to visit is in the evening when boating facilities are available. However, in windy weather, boating may not be available for safety reasons. There are plenty of eateries at the entrance of the lake, making it the ideal place to spend quality time, especially for some 'me' time.

It was my first place that I visited after coming to Chandigarh. The sunset was looking beautiful ❤️ and the air was flowing slowly. You can visit this place alone or with your friends and family.
Boating is available. You can take the rides as well. You will find the peace and the fresh air.
You can get the auto rickshaw from Shivalik park easily. Charge you around 20-30 rs.

The Sukhna Lake in Chandigarh weaves a magical tapestry of serenity and splendor. This picturesque man-made marvel, born from the vision of the great architect Le Corbusier, stands as a true oasis amidst the modern chaos of the city.
Imagine a place where time seems to slow down, and worries melt away like droplets on the lake's glassy surface. Sukhna Lake beckons you with open arms, inviting you to escape the mundane and embrace the extraordinary. The verdant foliage of the Shivalik Hills embraces you like a warm hug. The gentle breeze carries the faint melody of birdsong, setting the stage for a symphony of nature's finest performance. One can have an awesome view of the sunrise over there with cold Breeze and pleasant weather.
Majestic migratory birds from distant lands descend upon Sukhna Lake, transforming it into a vibrant aviary. They paint the skies with their grace, and birdwatchers and photographers alike are left spellbound by this feathery spectacle. As the sun dips below the horizon, the lake dons its golden cloak, and the air becomes infused with the aroma of camaraderie and laughter. Families gather for heartwarming picnics, children chase each other with gleeful abandon, and friends share stories that will echo in their hearts for eternity.
Things to do at the Sukhna Lake :
1. Sunrise and Sunset Viewing
2. Bird watching
3. Jogging and Morning Walks
4. Meditation
5. Boating
6. Visiting Museum
7. Photography

Most picturesque place of chandigarh Sukhna Lake is a reservoir at the foothills of the Himalayas. This 3 km² rainfed lake was created in 1958 by damming the Sukhna Choe, a seasonal stream coming down from the Shivalik Hills. Originally, the seasonal flow entered the lake directly causing heavy siltation.
It has ample food joints in the food court, drinking water facilities, boating facilities (Rs 250 for 2 seater boat + 250 as security). Good for nature lovers.

I have been visiting this place for past 20 years and it still holds the charm. It brings peace and tranquility. Walking the entire track feels amazing while looking at the greenery on one side and the water with paddle boats and kayaks on the other side. It's one of the most inclusive public spaces I have come across in India. There are people running, walking, doing exercise, couples, elderly, kids and a lot more. Sukhna has something to offer to everyone. I prefer the Garden of Silence side as it's more peaceful compare to the entrance.
Monsoon is one of the good times as everything is lush green and the lake is full. Winter is also great as you can sit and relax on the toasty stone embankment or the grass and eat oranges and soak in the sun.
It's a place one must visit if going to Chandigarh.

Zakir Hussain Rose Garden in Chandigarh is believed to be the largest rose garden in Asia.
In addition to roses, the promotional literature says there are over 1000 varieties there, there are also several medicinal herbs, plants and trees. The roses are laid out in aesthetically designed flowerbeds, surrounded by beautifully landscaped areas interspersed with trees and flowering shrubs.
I couldn't see the garden in full bloom as I visited towards the end of March in 2015, after the Rose Festival was over, and many of the flowerbeds were being relaid for the next season.
There are some fountains towards one of the entrances, and a large wind chime.

I actually experienced this place is monsoon and it was my first experience over here but after visiting this place now I'm really really looking forward to visit this place again in winter as so many roses will grow at rapid pace and atmosphere will be more interesting at that time.
I haven't seen so many types of shade of different different roses till now and it's just a pure pure beauty to witness and i must admit that what a wonderful landscaping has been done. It's just damn good.
The place itself will give you so much soothing vibe. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I visited the rose garden in Chandigarh with my family last week. It is supposed to be the largest rose garden in Asia, but I was disappointed by the lack of roses. There were very few roses and they were not very colorful or fragrant. The garden looked more like a regular park with swings and slides for kids and a fountain for decoration. The only positive thing was that my son enjoyed playing on the slides and swings for an hour. I think the rose garden needs more attention and improvement to live up to its name and reputation.

Zakir Hussain Rose Garden is very nice and special place to visit in Chandigarh. The garden is very well maintained and you will be amazed to see the different varieties and colours of roses. This is the largest Rose Garden in Asia and is spread over an area of 40 acres and has more than 32,500 plants representing around 825 varieties of roses. This is nice place if you want to spend some time in peace. However the flowering season is mostly in summers so in winters the flowering is scarce. Kids also have a play area inside the garden so they can equally enjoy. Rose festival here is very popular. Must visit this place.

Panjab University (PU) is one of the most prestigious public universities in India. The university has a beautiful campus and offers excellent facilities for students. The university attracts a good crowd of students and staff, making it a very lively place to study. The food served at the university is also commendable.
Infrastructure is nice the campus is very big it has different buildings for Science students Commerce students, BTech students and arts students. It also has canteen in which sitting arrangements is available. Also, fresh and good quality food is available there.
Academics
For academics, it is good. Teachers are well experienced. They are very helpful, cooperative and nice. The curriculum is designed according to the guidelines of University but it doesn't help students to give any Competitive exam.
Placements
Placement is not very good. Students has to to try themselves to get a good job. They have to work on their personality, communication skills etc.by themselves. Only college helps the students to clear all the queries if any student has related to placement process.
Value-for-money
The course fees is jusy Rs. 30,000 and i think according to the fees, it is average college.
Campus Life
Students can engage in extra curricular activities like dance, music, sports, fest etc.

GANDHI BHAWAN
It’s distinctive position as a white lotus against the red sandstone structures of the Panjab campus is a metaphorical representation of Gandhi’s teachings, and stands out amidst the more traditional academic and administrative structures of the university. It is as iconic as it seems. A shame that the pool of water was not present at the time of visiting, however it allowed me to capture the building’s details with my eyes more than a zoom of the camera.
Despite its individual characteristic, I find that the Fine Arts Museum opposite, shares a facade similar to Gandhi Bhawan. Two sets of large panels sitting atop, or sandwiched between a set of long horizontal panels. Perhaps, Gandhi Bhawan fits in well on Panjab campus, and the two structures and their contrasting hues and material, highlight the nuanced interplay between tradition and modernity.
BOYS’ HOSTEL
One of the Boys’ Hostel visited was an observation of one room on the ground level, where a lattice brickwork was displayed. However, some of the holes of the brickwork were filled with two stacks of bricks. Perhaps, the natural ventilation operates well, but privacy was sought after.
I did also love the short coloured stone walls at the entrance to the dorms.
STUDENT CENTRE
My first instance of seeing a concrete ramp circle up a concrete building, its facade often placed with pivotal louvered windows for natural ventilation, while a hand runs along the thick concrete railing held up by frequent thin metal poles. Though I’ve only had the opportunity to enter its top floor cafe, the Student Centre appears much better from the outside.
Its bathroom is terrible, and the lighting was weak inside the cafe. I did adore the view of the social hub below the building, and the maintained shrubs along the footpaths.

The Sri Harmandir Sahib (meaning "The Golden Temple") is the most sacred Sikh shrine and is internationally renowned for its stunning architecture and beautiful gardens. The temple is located in Amritsar, India, and attracts millions of visitors every year. Visitors are welcome to bring cameras, but be aware that photography is not allowed inside the temple.
Love the place, very peaceful and positive vibes. Beautiful Temple and surrounding. Staff is so helpful and polite. In night Golden Temple is shining after all light on.
Your can only take pictures from camera, video shooting is not allowed in inside temple area.

Experience the positive energy here. Nice & beautiful surrounding
There is a free kitchen as well which serves lunch and dinner. A very holy place must visit.
The temple is really spectacular at night since it is lit, a must see at night.
Also it is one of the most sacred pilgrim spots for Sikhs and they offered a good and tasty meal. Hope I'll visit once again with my family too.🏛️

Great experience

The place deserves at least two visits - one during the day to enjoy the experience in full daylight and one in the evening, when the lights are on highlighting the details. Good time is the time of evening prayers and taking the Holly Book to sleep at around 10 p.m. During the day it is worth to visit the place with a local guide who will show you places that otherwise you would miss or have no idea that you could visit like the kitchens serving 40 to 50 thousand meals each day... And you enjoy that beautiful place free. Unfortunately taking photographs in the temple is strictly forbidden - pictures only outside...

Even after going there, it doesn't feel like we have reached here, it looks more beautiful in the evening, the light around and the gold shining from the lake, it looks like a dream, this place is a symbol of peace, tranquility and community. , cleanliness is also taken special care here, it is also true that people who come here pray for their well-being and it is fulfilled, it is open 24 hours and food is also available 24 hours free for all passengers. So I will say that we must come here at least once in our life.

Undoubtedly, this is the main attraction of Amritsar and a must visit place. Whatever is your religion, you are be welcome inside. This place is definitely going to make you calm, you have to feel it yourself, no word can describe it. Few things to keep in mind while visiting the temple :
1. Try to arrange an accommodation close to the Golden Temple, so that you can visit the temple early morning and late evening.
2. Being the main attraction, this place can get reao crowded, keep that in mind.
3. You need to cover your head, put off yours shoes and wash your feet before entering.
4. They have the baggage counter inside the temple, you may deposit your bag there

Golden rays of sunrise gleam,
Offering hope in a tranquil dream.
Lustrous shrine in Amritsar's heart,
Divine beauty, a sacred work of art.
Eternal peace in its hallowed dome,
Nurturing souls, a spiritual home.
Tranquil refuge for the soul,
Echoes of prayers, a sacred role.
Majestic in its architectural grace,
Peaceful aura, a hallowed space.
Luminous in the candlelight's gleam,
Enveloping all in a serene dream.

The Golden Temple in Amritsar, also known as Harmandir Sahib, is an iconic Sikh religious site and a must-visit destination. It is a place of profound spiritual significance and architectural beauty. The stunning golden structure is surrounded by a serene and picturesque lake, creating a sense of peace and tranquility.
The temple complex is open to people of all faiths and offers free meals to visitors, showcasing the Sikh principles of equality and selfless service. The interior of the temple is equally impressive with its intricate artwork and gilded walls. The atmosphere is often filled with devotional music and a palpable sense of spirituality.
However, the temple can get crowded, almost daily and especially during religious festivals, so it’s advisable to visit during quieter times for a more serene experience. Overall, the Golden Temple is a unique and spiritually enriching place that is well worth a visit for its cultural, religious, and architectural significance.

Long queue but absolutely worth the wait. I loved it here, had a good spiritual experience. Generally temples are all commercialized in India but not this one, we weren't asked to pay even a single penny anywhere. And enjoyed the yummiest langar. Punjabis do have a big heart.

Beyond comprehension, so beautiful, so clean, so impressive. The langar is so well organized and well done. The water is so clean, and the atmosphere so friendly despite the massive crowds. Kudos to the organizers. Visiting the Golden Temple is a very spiritually uplifting experience. The temple is open to people of all faith and gives one the ability to do Seva, to serve humanity. its a must visit place at least once in a lifetime.

Beautiful experience in the holiest Sikh place. We visited at night (~9 pm) to witness the “putting to bed” ceremony and it was amazing . We also visited the kitchen and seeing the amount of people eating there was quite extraordinary. Keep in mind you need to take off your shoes and socks to enter the temple, but it is quite clean. If you enjoy this kind of place it is worth coming to Amritsar just to see this temple . The temple is very beautiful 😍

Smooth flow inside (entry into the main worship area does have a very long queue however) and stunning views. The temple has a beautiful philosophy of welcoming all and I encourage all to take it up.

It would be wrong to evaluate the place of this spiritual Guru because the Guru's house is the house of greatest peace and happiness and prosperity, there he is the house of peace and ending the restlessness of the mind. After going there, I felt that God was with me in such a way that I was not worried about any reason, I was just so engrossed in having darshan that I did not even realize that I had seen God with my own eyes.
