Himachal Pradesh

Everyone wants to see heaven but no one wants to die. This maxim no longer seems to be rational because heaven has landed here on earth for you and me to admire. At a mere distance of 67km from Mandi lies a paradise by the name of Janjheli. Beautiful is an understatement of sorts while one is describing the breathtaking vistas of this hilly pocket in the District Mandi of Himachal Pradesh, India. This comes as no surprise that Britishers were so taken with the lush green meadows of the place that they were bent upon making Janjheli as the summer capital instead of Shimla. But for the adamant ruler of Janjheli, their dreams couldn’t be materialized. Situated at a height of 2150 metres in Thunag tehsil, Mandi district, Janjehli can be approached via Karsog too.
