As part of my recent visit to Chandigarh I took time off on the 15th of July, with my team members, to visit Kasauli, the picturesque hill station nestled on the foothills of the himalayas. It is located at a distance of about 70 Km from Chandigarh and one needs to take the road to Shimla and with a diversion somewhere midway. The elevation is 6500m above sea level. The route runs through Pinjore, Kalka and Parwano and the journey after Parwano is breathtaking as one starts the ascent into the hills. We experienced a heavy downpour as we were leaving Chandigarh and were a bit apprehensive as to whether we will be able to enjoy the breathtaking views on the way up but as luck would have it the weather cleared, and we were able to breath in the crisp air and enjoy the pristine surroundings of Kausauli. We were fortunate to capture a number of nature shots of cloud covered hills, up the misty road to Kasauli. The journey was throughly refreshing and relaxing. We came back to Chandigarh, a little late because of a traffic jam in Parwano - and of course we didn't mind it.
