It lies at an elevation of 1457 meters from sea level and is at the edge of the Himalayas.

But that did not work out very well because Punjabi people know how to make lunch which would fulfill your soul. And to digest that kind of lunch one would need to walk 10 kilometers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Navigating out of the city was pretty easy and you could start riding the ghat section after Hamirpur.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We were all new to riding the ghats but one of us was super low on confidence. It\u2019s evident that we did not take our parents\u2019 permission to bunk our internship\u2019s lectures and ride to Dharamshala.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/en-route-dharamshala.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-24782 size-full\" title=\"bike trip to dharamshala\" src=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/en-route-dharamshala.jpg\" alt=\"bike trip to dharamshala\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/en-route-dharamshala.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/en-route-dharamshala-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/en-route-dharamshala-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/en-route-dharamshala-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/en-route-dharamshala-585x439.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Nishant wanted to get back to his home in one piece and he decided not to cross 30 km per hour. He clearly was holding us back. Siddharth being his riding partner (he is 6\u20191\u201d and weighs anywhere around a quintal), insisted on letting him drive for the Ghat section. I don&#8217;t know if Siddharth ever sat on the back seat for the rest of the trip!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We rode with multiple stops for filling fuel and refueling our bellies. It was getting darker and more difficult to see the oncoming traffic as the motorcycle rental agency had gifted us with some supreme quality helmets which had terrible visors. It was getting more difficult to see and so we decided to make a stop at Kangra for the first night.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The great thing about that was that Kangra had some awesome street food lined up for us; and equally difficult was to eat there since we were not the only ones who were hungry like wolves. We had the best Rara chicken in a restaurant nearby and ended the day at our hotels\u2019 comfortable beds.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_2_Explore_Kangra\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Day 2: Explore Kangra<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Before leaving Jalandhar we had made a pact that we would spend as much time as it would take to explore the place completely (unless we run out of money first). So, we began searching for a place to have an overwhelming breakfast. The hotel&#8217;s breakfast was too expensive to afford and so we decided to ride to the Kangra Fort; as a little birdy told us that there were some fantastic food joints near the fort. I would not call them food joints per se; they were more like small shacks with heart-warming people to serve you fantastic food. We ordered \u2018Aalu ka paratha\u2019 accompanied by chai and it turned out to be absolutely delicious.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The lady who had served us the breakfast was gracious enough to point us to the ticket counter for the Kangra Fort. I think it was the first time that it did not bother me to pay for the ticket; since I could already see that the fortress was very well maintained and clean. We took our own sweet time to walk around the whole fortress and click some stupid funny pictures.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The fort infused a feeling that how puny we are in this big world.

The restaurateur pointed us in the direction of Palampur as we had decided to ride around that small town in the vicinity of Dharamshala. At this point in time, Vishwaraj, who has some influential friends managed to book a Government guest house near Palampur.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At this time, I got an idea of wearing a face buff from Royal Enfield. There was no dealership around and so we had to ride to the town. The roads shrunk to one lane, keeping its unblemished texture.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We got awestruck when our eyes captured the mighty Dhauladhar range peeking at us from the curtain of thick clouds. Trivial Face buff from Royal Enfield was bought and we started riding back to our guest house. It had already begun to get dark and the temperature starting to drop.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fools that we were, it never bothered us to wear some warm clothing. The temperature kept falling. We couldn&#8217;t ride above 20 km per hour till the time we saw a billboard saying, \u2018Beware of Black Bear\u2019. That was pretty motivating and forced us to pick pace. Quickly, with our running noses, we reached our guest house.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I could feel the tension and death gaze everyone give me at the dinner table.

So, naturally, people cook authentic Tibetan food here that you can feast on. If you do not like to experiment with your taste buds, there are many Punjabi Dhabas and restaurants that offer good North Indian food. Some offer South Indian cuisine, too, but the region mainly has North Indian and Tibetan cuisine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/at-tibet-kitchen.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-24781 size-full\" title=\"what to eat in dharamshala\" src=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/at-tibet-kitchen.jpg\" alt=\"what to eat in dharamshala\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/at-tibet-kitchen.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/at-tibet-kitchen-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/at-tibet-kitchen-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/at-tibet-kitchen-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/at-tibet-kitchen-585x439.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I have had a great time eating at Tibet Kitchen.

Some of the famous ones are Illiterati, and Common Grounds (Food is fairly priced unlike Illiterati). Both these cafes offer a good variety of Tibetan dishes and of course, they make Momos, too!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Even if you wander on the streets, you can find a lot of food stalls. They have some magical foods for you. Many can be spotted making steamed Momos and Thukpa. You know Momos, so I\u2019ll go on and tell you what Thukpa is. It is a traditional soup made with noodles, freshly cut vegetables, and meat. It is inclined towards spicy and will make you comfortably warm in extreme winters.

Often called heaven for the tea lovers, these tea gardens were started by Dr. Jameson, who was the Superintendent of Botanical Gardens, North-West Frontier Province back in the 1800s.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u2018Kangra Tea\u2019 is one which is so great that 90% of its yield gets exported out of the country. If you want to see the whole process of plucking, picking, and processing, you should visit Palampur Co-operative Tea Factory Limited which is very near to Palampur. You can reach Palampur Tea Garden from Dharamshala by taking a local bus or hiring a cab. The distance is about 35 kilometers and will take 40-50 minutes.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Naddi_Village\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Naddi Village<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Some people travel to take time out from their daily chores and just sit back and relax. If you belong to this category, then Naddi should be on your list. Located at 7152 feet from sea level, Naddi is a 3-kilometer walk from Mcleodganj. This place is so mesmerizing that you would want to stay here for as long as you could. Fresh air, green hills, blue sky, and beautiful vistas are what Naddi is all about. You can just stand at any viewpoint and let your mind soak in the beauty.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Naddi has an annual 3-month fair from April onward. And fairs in Himachal Pradesh are always a bit different from the rest of the country. If you happen to be there around that time of the year, do visit this place.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mcleodganj\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Mcleodganj<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Inhabiting a fair amount of Tibetans and helping them preserve their culture has been a thing in Mcleodganj. Mcleodganj is the place where you can find Tibetan handicrafts like Thangkasa, carpets, garments, crockery, and other souvenirs. Mcleodganj abodes Tsuglagkhang or Tsuglag Khang, the Dalai Lama&#8217;s temple. It has many cafes where you can have a taste of Tibetan cuisines, too. You can also do shopping at Mcleod Market. Shopping for things like jackets, souvenirs and eateries can easily make you kill time here.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Triund\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Triund<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A large grassland for animals to graze and make their shepherds happy, Triund, is situated at 9328 feet from the sea level. It is a beginner-friendly trek of 10 kilometers one-way. The trek is well laid but rocky for the most part. A memorable road goes up to Galu Devi temple and from there you walk 6 kilometers to the top.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The trail is accompanied by Deodar forest and one can hear the stream flowing nearby the whole trail. A popular way of doing this trek is going up via Dharamkot and coming down via Bhagsunag waterfall.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This place has been a tourist attraction for a long time; and due to excessive littering, the government has recently banned overnight camping there. There are a few cafes en-route which are still operating including the Snowline Caf\u00e9. So, take your camping gear and plan a trip to Triund as it is totally worth it. Ask the officials where you could camp and they\u2019ll be happy to help. Mcleodganj from the top can also be seen well lit.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After the ban, people prefer a day hike to the top and race back down till sundown.

Due to being so old and greeted by the 7.8 magnitude 1905 earthquake, the fort has been damaged severely. It is now controlled by the government of Himachal Pradesh.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Near the fort is a museum run by the Royal Family of Kangra.

It is best enjoyed by just lazing around. You could easily spend an hour or so just sitting at a bench and soaking in the beauty.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is mostly visited by tourists in September when a fair is organized by the Gaddi tribe which marks the presence of Lord Shiva.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">One can drive all the way to the lake and park their vehicle in the parking lot. There are small cafes, too, in case you make a mind for a Kadak Chai!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Also Read:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/triund-and-snowline-trek-mcleodganj\/\">Triund and Snowline Trek Mcleodganj<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Can we go to Dharamshala Cricket Stadium?<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Yes, you can.

The place is worth a visit as it is among the highest sports facilities in the world.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Staying at Dharamshala or Mcleodganj?<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It depends on what mood you are in. If you want a calm and serene stay, make a night halt at Dharamshala. On the other hand, if you can afford the hustle-bustle of a typical tourist place, go stay at Mcleodganj.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_time_to_visit_Dharamshala\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Best time to visit Dharamshala<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you love exploring the places you visit, then from February to mid-June would be perfect for you to visit Dharamshala. In the given time, you can enjoy the place as it won\u2019t be extreme weather and you can enjoy all kinds of activities, too. The temperature would range from 9 \u00b0C to 21 \u00b0C in the spring and 21 \u00b0C to 34 \u00b0C in the summers.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cost_of_Trip_to_Dharamshala\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Cost of Trip to Dharamshala<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Below is the breakdown of the cost incurred during our trip.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Bike rental: TB 350 &#8211; 1000*3 = 3000<\/li>\n<li>Bike rental: Avenger 220 &#8211; 800*3 = 2400<\/li>\n<li>Fuel: (TB 350) Total Distance &#8211; 550 km, fuel efficiency &#8211; 36 km per liter, cost of petrol ~ 72\/L.

Though, rooms at Dharamshala or Mcleodganj would have cost us about the same. So, considering not all people have friends like Vishwaraj, the total for stays would be around 1500*3 = 4500.
