Kasol

Kasol :

Kasol has definitely been one of my favourite places in India. Kasol, the most popular stop in the parvati valley (and the easiest access to the world's best charas). Most people when first hear of Kasol, confuse it with Kasoli. This is because, Kasol is an offbeat Himalayan town situated very close to the Sikh shrine of Manikaran. There are places and then there are Places! Nestled in the magical Parvati valley of the Himachal is the beautiful village of Kasol.

Kasol can be reached by a twelve hour bus ride from Delhi to Bhuntar (on the road to Manali) from where one needs to either take a taxi or a local bus for another journey of around 2 hours to reach the village. Foreigners abound the place and accommodation is available at pretty cheap rates in the many guest houses that sprawl the hills and the conifer woods.

 Kasol giving me a different feeling. Though a small place, but I felt like settling in the village.

Kasol is known to be the home of backpackers, a lot of them being from Israel. Most of them are come here for the beauty of the place. I read about Kasol as an offbeat destination around Manali. The place was described as one of the popular destinations in India and in Himachal Pradesh. The place was also described as Amsterdam of India when it comes to stoners heaven.

There are many hill-stations in India alone, but Kasol stands out from all of them.
