We were off to explore mini Israel and the first thing I have seen was this beautiful ice-coated mountain shining like gold at the sunset that exact precious capture is so tempting. Nearby the flea market has everything that a hippie backpacker is looking for!! You can't come to Kasol and not try the steaming hot Momos. And if offbeat wilderness riverside camping is in your bucket list then the woods of Kasol is a perfect place to try it out in, a short walk away from the main town, setting the camp near the river and amidst pine tree is an experience that money cant buy. With the sound of the flowing river, fresh cold wind and a bonfire, it was altogether a different experience for me.🥰 Kasol. Stoners paradise, they say.but it is not only f

Once you enter this lane it will lead you to the bliss where you can sit and have coffee and beat the lazy weekend blues. It has an outdoor seating lit up with fairy lights in the evening. Champa Gali is pretty photogenic, with hanging trees on its walls, art signage.
