If this isn’t enough change of scenery, we don’t know what is!
Since pictures speak a thousand words, we’ll let them give you more reasons.
The Sheltered Valley view which provides you the serene feel of the Mountain Valley.
And if you’re lucky enough to see it – The Chandratal Lake which is mystical beyond words to compare its Pristine Beauty and the Tranquilizing effect it has on the land and viewers & so much more.
