"You can think well, love well, sleep well, if you have dined well." 1/2

Terraveller experience: comfortable stay with great food and friends for company when I travelled to Spiti from 22.08.2024 to 04.09.2024 (14 days).

Our travel circuit: Mumbai > Chandigarh > Narkanda > Sangla > Tabo > Pin valley > Rangrik > Langza > Komic > Hikkim > Kaza > Chandratal > Manali > Delhi > Mumbai.

A fully furnished and fully AC 3-BHK flat with 2 master bedrooms booked via AirBnb.

We experienced a paranormal activity here.

Our evening snacks at Khanna's Nukkad Dhaba at Zirakpur.

We enjoyed the dinner at P. Bhagat Tarachand at Zirakpur.

DAY 1 CHANDIGARH TO NARKANDA via Shimla 24.08.2024:

We had breakfast at Bikanerwala in Zirakpur, Punjab near Chandigarh.

We reported with Terraveler at 10 am. Our driver Mr. OmPrakash Thakur was a local himachali person from Mandi.

Lunch was the Verma's home stay and restaurant, after crossing Simla.

We sipped tea watching this gorgeous sunset while our tempo traveler refueled.

After a long ride starting at 10 am in the morning, we reached our destination, narkanda at 8 pm and we all were relieved to get out of the vehicle. We checked in the Treeline cottages at Narkanda.

Even when we were tired, I got my friends out under the dark open sky to observe the Milky Way and the constellations of Scorpio and Sagittarius.

Afterwards, we headed for the dinner at the restaurant of Treeline cottages.

We had breakfast overlooking the apple orchards which are nestled between the tall and dense conifers on the slopes of the mountains.

DAY 2 NARKANDA TO SANGLA 25.08.2024:

After visit to Rampur Bushahr palace, which didn't even provide the tourists with public convenience we bought some fruits at the local market. These apples are from Thanedar, the birthplace of apples in Asia. They were fresh, crunch and juicy.

We then headed to this restaurant on the highway. The split curds were the highlight of the menu.

We were always sightseing even while traveling in the vehicle. Tosh was informing us about the importance of the places we were passing by. Sometimes, we halted for photos too.

We reached Chitkul, the last or the first Indian village along the Indo-Tibetian border. Again we were facing the problem of public convenience and I went ahead to find washrooms for our group of 14 at Chitkul. The first restaurant denied us, even when we were ready to be their customers. The second restaurant welcomed us and provided us with a clean washroom. In all this search, I made a deal with the second restaurant that I will ensure 14 tea &/or snacks are ordered by our group. Now after getting refreshed, it was announced that we have a time limit of half an hour and everyone opted to sightsee in Chitkul. I ordered my tea and waited for it to be served and then many friends sat at the table. Even if we may not be all 14 at the restaurant, the number was healthy and I was happy to give back to the restaurant, who welcomed us for the loo-break. In this bargain, I lost the time to see Chitkul, but Tosh was gracious to me allow a walk in the village. In fact, he came and showed us the old village too! I was happy, that I didn't miss anything - the tea or the sights.

Afterwards, we backtracked to Sangla. Here we were staying in Hotel Prakash and our meals were at Hotel Prakash regency, which is just opposite it.

Our dinner at Hotel Prakash Regency.

DAY 3 SANGLA to TABO 26.08.2024:

Breakfast here at Sangla was with a view of Kinnaur Kailash mountain, which is always shrouded in clouds.

We moved ahead and reached the devil shoulder, Mt. Reo Purgyil - which overlooks the sangam or confluence of River Spiti and River Sutluj at a place called Khab. The sun was hot and so was the lunch at this roadside dhaba which was managed by the woman power of that village.

Rajma Chawal and Chowmein noodles are the staple dishes of this region.

After the sightseeing the Nako village and the lake, we reached Tabo and checked-in at Lari village at bungalow, Samdup Khangsar Homestay. The hosts of this place were warm and gracious local folks, who welcomed us in their family and ensured that we as their guests had a fabulous experience. We stargazed from terrace of this bungalow.

Dinner at Tabo (photo is awaited).

DAY 4 TABO to PIN VALLEY 27.08.2024:

Breakfast at Lari's bungalow home stay.

We had traditional breafast of Tibetian bread (phaley) with a dollop of butter, spicy green chutney and curds. The fresh apricots were complimentary from the host.

We reached Dhankar Gompa and Tosh of Terraveller offered us a choice between a trek to an high altitude Dhankar lake and lunch at the restaurant of the monastery. Few of us opted to trek and the rest enjoyed the lunch of thukpa and Tibetian omelette with bottled gauva juice.

Those who trekked to Dhankar lake had a lunch of fresh plums and scenery. 13 people and a box of plums, literally.

After tea at the Dhankar gompa's restaurant, we restarted our journey to one of the remote regions of Spiti - Pin Valley. We reached Mudh village in the dark around 8 pm and were dead tired from the arduous journey. Nobody clicked photos here at Sonam Tara Home Stay at Mudh village as we all were tired. Also the dinner photos were skipped. But there is a priceless memory which had been shared by a friend. Kudos to Tosh bhai of Terraveller.

DAY 5 PIN VALLEY to RANGRIK (near Kaza) 28.08.2024:

We woke up fresh and our breakfast was here opposite our home stay at Tara Traveller's cafe at Mudh, Pin valley.

Kaza was on the menu. We explored it on foot and Tosh recommended Cafe Piti for lunch. Though the service was late, it was made up by the courteous staff and the taste of the food served. There were fossils on display at this restaurant.

Photo credits:

I have used photos graciously shared by my foodie friends, who also clicked good photos of places we stayed at. They allowed me to use their photos for this blog post. Those who contributed pictures are:

ND, DrPS, DrHS, DrKG, PN, SM & Terraveller, with whom we all had gone. (If I have missed anyone whose photos I have used and credits are not mentioned, it is unintentional & you may please bring to my attention. I will mention).

Best time to Visit Russia

Russia experiences four main seasons: Spring, summer, autumn, and winter. The months that see high tourist influx in the country are April to October. June to August is the peak season while December to February is the off-season of tourism in Russia. However, the best time to visit Russia depends on the Russia travel packages you choose. Here is a seasonal breakup of weather conditions in Russia which will help you choose Russia tour packages from Salvia Travels India and help you plan your Russia trip better.

April to May:- The month of April marks the onset of the Spring season in Russia when the snow starts melting. With nature coming to life- trees restoring their greenery and flowers in full bloom, everything looks and feels pleasant. This is the best time to visit Russia for those who seek solace on their Russia trip. The temperature ranges between 2oC to 19oC. You can be part of the Spring festival held on 1st and 2nd May and also witness the Victory Day celebrations in Moscow. 

June to August:- These are the peak tourism months in Russia as the weather is pleasantly warm. The temperature ranges from 17oC to 25oC with bright sunny days and clear blue skies. 

This is the best time to visit Russia as tourists can enjoy everything, from sightseeing to nature. The favorable weather conditions lead to overcrowded attractions, which can hold you back if you want to avoid crowds.

 September to October:- As the summer fades away and Russia makes way for winter, one can see the colors of Autumn. Rust-colored leaves adorning streets and pavements and the autumn smell in the air add to the charm of Russian tour packages during these months. With pleasant days and comparatively cooler nights, the temperatures during these months range from 3oC to 20oC. The summer tourists leave and Russia is less crowded during these months. This is the best time to visit Russia for those who want to avoid the masses during their Russia trip. The Russian Fashion Week held in October is one of the reasons for tourism during these months.

November to March:- Winters in Russia are not everyone’s cup of tea. “Extremely long” is one common term used to describe them. With the minimum and maximum temperatures staying negative, and sun up for almost 23 hours on some days, life can be extremely difficult. However, if you are a budget traveler, this is the best time to visit Russia as you can grab amazing deals on Russia travel packages. New Year’s however sees several tourists and prices shoot up. Some days of March also see snowfall but the temperatures are not as low as that in December and January.

How to Reach Russia

Direct flights take somewhere around 7 hours, while flights with stops in between can take up to 20 hours to reach Russia. Air India, Air Arabia, Etihad, and Emirates operate flights between the two countries and Aeroflot is the national carrier of Russia.

 By Train:- Since a part of Russia lies in Europe, you can reach Russia from Europe by train. Direct trains are available from almost all major European cities to Moscow and St. Petersburg. A train journey from Europe can take anywhere between 16 to 36 hours depending upon the distance. If you want to reach Russia from Asia, you can board the Trans-Siberian Railway from Beijing to Moscow. Railway tickets can be booked online.

By Road:- Major European cities offer bus services to Moscow and St. Petersburg. Though cheaper, this mode of transport can take twice as long as train journeys, hence it is not recommended to travel by road. However, if you wish to travel in your vehicle, you need to have an international driving license. Some documents will be needed as and when you reach a new country. Travelling from India to Russia by road involves going through countries like China followed by Kazakhstan, before entering Russia.

Russian visa for Indians - Indian passport holders who are planning a Russia tour from India need to obtain a Russia visa before travel. The passport should be valid for six months from your date of entry into Russia. The entire visa process can take up to 20 days so it is advised to apply well in advance.
