Mukteshwar – A small tourist destination in the kumaon Hills at an altitude of 2286 metrs (7500 feet) . A place with absolute peace, solitude and silence. If you want to spend some of your quality time with the nature, Mukteshwar is the place which offers you the absolute luxury of being in the midst of pine and oak trees, surrounding hills and mountains with absolute silence to refresh your body, soul and mind.
While heading towards Mukteshwar , one encounters the unfolded beauty which Kumaon valley offers silently.
When the first ray of sunrise just touches your face, when the cold wind left behind its freshness in the air , when you are surrounded by the fruit orchards and thick coniferous forests………..anyone can feel the mesmerizing beauty this unexplored valley offers.....
A refreshing scenic view of the hills in Uttarakhand
This is called Chauthi Ki Jali - Situated on the cliff behind the Mukteshwar temple from where anyone can see the panoramic view of hills of Uttarakhand.
The Aura of Sunset - Standing on the edge of the cliff one can have the pleasure to view the Himalayan range with the multi layers of hills of Uttarakhand. An enriching experiences of a new world of serenity and tranquility.

If you are a regular visitor of Travellingcamera , you must have noticed that title of this Photo Journey is not really matching with what we usually share. This post is inspired by lot of queries which come to us, especially in summer. One of the mostly asked thing is the options to reach Kasol and Malana . Here we are trying to share some details the option to reach Kasol/Malana, places to stay , things to do and lot more. Related post - Kasol: A beautiful Himalayan hotspot
Dalhousie is one of the most popular Hill Stations in Himachal and there is lot to explore around Dalhousie. This is small and very well maintained town in Chamba region of Himachal Pradesh . This Photo Journey shares some of the exciting places around Chamba and how to plan a good one day tour through Khajjiar, Chamba & Chamera etc. CHAMERA HYDROLIC PROJECT Chamera Hydroelectric Project is located in Banikhet, 7 kms from Dalhousie. The water body near the lake is very scenic and is a popular boating spot. Chamera Dam is around 40 kilometers from Chamba Town. It takes approximately 1.5 hrs to reach the place is road condition is good. Overall it’s a little dry terrain as compared to Dalhousie and Khajjiar. And temperature also goes up as we go towards Chamera Dam. As you move out from Chamba town, you follow Ravi river for some time and then take right. After 45 minutes of drive, you get a glimpse of Chemera Dam.
For the past few years, I have taken to Himachali music. I first got introduced to it during my wedding, when a constant background music of women singing Himachali wedding songs, made the simple ceremony even more beautiful. Since then, I have been introduced to several Himachali songs that I have come to love. And this also gives me a great advantage - when I sing these in family gatherings, VJ's side of the family is unfailingly impressed by a non-Himachali knowing so many Himachali songs :-P.
PHOTOGRAPHS OF CHANDIGARH CITY Welcome to first Smoke-free City of India : Chandigarh. I like the city the because of its cleanness, friendly environment & excellent quality of life. Chandigarh is a quite near to the capital city of India - Delhi . There are lot of good places to see in Chandigarh. Here are few Pics: Rock Garden : Rock garden is near to Sukhna Lake. The entrance leads to a magnificent, almost, surrealist arrangement of rocks, boulders, broken chinaware, discarded fluorescent tubes, broken and cast away glass bangles, building waste, coal & clay-all juxtaposed to create a dream folk world of places, soldiers, monkeys, village life, women and temples. In the end there is a huge open space surrounded by different kind of mirrors having special effects. There are lot of things to do for children.
When I look out for reviews and comparisons of products I want to buy, I find it difficult to read long posts which compare things which are just jargons for me and there is no clear verdict. And at the end I am more confused :). For my recent reviews I have started adding verdicts and in past at least 40 friends and family went ahead with my verdict and bought cameras I suggested and all of them are happy with what they have. And that makes me more confident in suggesting products which are either used by me for some project or by my serious photographer friends. Although this post is about comparison of Canon 1300D and Nikon D3300, but feel free to reach us for detailed views on other cameras.
