Dagshai

Kasauli at its best

  • Monkey Point : Its the highest point in Kasauli. It gives a clear view of the city Chandigardh(Punjab) and the river Satluj flowing by. It has the shape of a foot. As the mythology goes this point was touched by Lord Hanumana on his return to the seashore while bringing the Sanjeevani Booti to treat the Prince Laxman(Younger Brother of Lord Rama).
  • Chur Chandini Peak : Yet another among the clouds place, feel and touch the clouds moving above your head and around your hands in this peak lying in the north east region of Kasauli.


Where and Why

If you are thinking of place devoid of actions and reactions, this is the place to head for. Its a land of beauty, you will find the Koel cooing here with the first sunlight. Sound of water running past by as you wake up and the cool air passing by you as you take a walk.

Head for the Dhauladhar range as the first place in the morning. Its one of the best known places in Kasauli. Do some trekking if you wish to or simply take a walk on foot or cover the distance on a pony; the choice is yours. Have your breakfast here among the ranges, take photographs or just lie down. There is a lot of space to idle out. If you want to Trek out more than go to the Chur Chandni Peak; its another place to trek on.

Its a place of mountains and mountain hills; so you have another interesting place- the monkey point. Shaped in the form of foot, it can be another adventure for you. Standing on the hill top, watch the beauty of the hills and the ravine flowing by. Its a greener place in the monsoon and winter season. Sitting here having a cup of tea at this hill point will provide a freshness to your mind. For the lunch however you will have to come back to the town. Although you wont find much of a delicacies here, but still basic Indian vegetarian and non-vegetarian food is easily available.

If you want to have more peaceful and cut off place, than Dagshai is the place to visit.It will also be an extension to your tour as its about 19kms from Kasauli and will take some time to reach. Its mostly known as the picnic spot for the local people, you can still enjoy the beauty of the hills among the orchids. Its a comparatively small town and so is the peace around here.


Suggestions
  • Take warm clothes if you are visiting in the cold winters of November and December. It can be cold in the month of January too.
  • Its a place which dosen't have shopping malls, museums, theaters or Tea estates. So be ready for a holiday which takes you away from the worldly disposition.
  • Always be in touch with your tour operator as they are the ones who will be there round the clock.
  • If on a individual tour its better to take a guided tour.
  • Food is plain vegetarian and non - vegetarian. Although food is avialable in plenty there aren't many restaurants to hang out. It is advisable to have the food at the hotel you are staying in.
  • Book a hotel in advance and try to take a guided tour if on a individal tour. Or ask your travel to book a hotel for you in advance.


....Mention may be made of Ujjyanta palace and Neer Mahal which are real eye-catching. Apart from that, the state has many characteristics items like cloths, handicrafts and much more the destination awaits many more visitors to get fascinate with.....

.....The beauty of the sights were as in Darjeeling filled with Greenery, the hills of Munnar or the breathtaking view of Kashmir of India. Its not the eyes of the beholder but the charismatic charm of the nature that catches the eyes of the beholder....

I went through the place Assam, wow!! this place is really the best I have ever visited my entire life the exotic location and the surrounding made me feel for sometime that I have viewed the heaven morning hours before the sun rises, in the chilling winter morning you can feel your hands get froze and you start saying ooze ooze! Don't you?

I would suggest a visit to this beautiful city to any traveler not only because of the beautiful landscape but also because of the hospitable nature of the people here. The hospitality of the people was so avid once I reached Gangtok. And then there were so many places to see in Gangtok like the Nathu La Pass, Tosmgo Lake and the Mountanieering Institiute.
