Probably the best way to experience India is on it's roads. The fancy new highways, the interior roads, the small towns along

the way, landscapes that soothe the eyes and smiles that pacify the soul. HolidayIQ Traveller Ganesh shares, "According to me

travelling by car on this route is most fantastic experience. The road crosses many rivers and mountains and many beautiful

temples and waterfall."

HolidayIQ Traveller Snjeev Sharma shares, “The Baspa River flows between the camps and the mountains and the gushing

sound of water is clearly audible at all times. The camps are on an elevation from the river for safety, so the river is not visible

but it is very near and needs a walk of about 3-4 minutes (100 metres or so). The food is good and is served in a common area

which is also beautiful. And one can also sit in complete open near bonfire. The trek they arranged for us, river crossing, were

great. They gave us ample time and suggestions on where to go and what to do.”



3. Laze On A Hammock In Goa

HolidayIQ Traveller Shekhar Verma from Jaipur shares, "The dramatic change in terrain starts the moment you are over the

rohtang pass. The deep valley of chandra river on one side and snow clad mountains on the other give you a feeling of being on

a different planet. The gradual absence of any form of vegitation is striking. Climbing the lofty heights of Kunzum pass (14500

ft) you feel as if you have reached the skies. The great sculptures carved by the wind and snow over hurdreds of years on the

side of the river & the small villages dominated by buddhist religious symbols are a sight to behold. The oldest monastry at

Tabo is worth seeing. places to stay are at Losar,Kaza and Tabo. The famous mummy of a monk at Gyu is near Tabo."
