Why Travel to the Himalayas?

The landscape is blessed with extraordinary habitats, cerulean lakes, thundering rivers, moon-land like glaciers, seldom visited pastoral valleys, unfathomable canyons, heart-stopping vistas of snowy peaks and luminous stary night-sky, where life of unassuming people moves at glacial pace and spirituality had been way of day-to-day life.
