 Next day, Early morning we headed toward Rohtang pass  around 7 am. The road was narrow, scary and one way but heavy army truck used to come from ladakh so we face many traffic jam and we reached to solang valley around 9 am. we can see many paragliding in Solang valley we enjoy the view where you could see the real beauty of nature which eye catching. Further we headed to Rohtang pass from Solang valley and we reached within 1 hour at 10 am to Rohtang Pass. Rohtang Pass is in high attitude so some people may find difficult to breath.

Amazing, isnt it? B hutan for sure is not an ordinary place, the culture that they have is really beautiful, this country is more about mountains, monastry theres magic to this. It is the last great Himalayan Kingdom,covered with mystery and magic , a place where a traditional Buddhist culture carefully embraces global developments.

Puttaparthi  is a town in Anantapur district of Andhhrapradesh and is located on the banks of Chitravathi river and is surrounded by undulating hills.When I was small I had always wished for visiting  this place and take blessing from Sai Baba. It was quite amazing when we reached over there. Rather than a nostalgic trend, I'd say this place was providing us an escape from the stresses and strains and fulfilling our need to find downtime. It was such a beautiful and clean place with everyone greeting you a "sai ram" even if they had to say hello. We visited few of  the temples in anantapur, and also the main ashram in Puttaparthi which is known as Prasathi Nilayam. I learnt that Prasanthi Nilayam meant "the abode of highest peace". when we entered inside Prasanthi Nilayam , it was such a huge place consisting of splendid temples, public relations desk, post office, canteen, bakery, kitchens, dining halls, guest houses, dormitories etc. It also house
