Snow or no snow the skiers can now zoom down the alpine slopes of Solang valley and test their endurance in the green heights.

With its foray into the adventure sport of Grass Skiing, Himachal Pradesh will very soon be an all time skiing destination. It will be the first Indian site to offer this adventure activity. Grass skiing was invented by Richard Martin in Germany in 1966. It was created initially as a training method for skiers before the winter season. Grass skiing is now a well recognized international sport and has a world cup too!

Solang Valley or Solang Nullah, 13 km north from the oversubscribed tourist destination of Manali, was until now known for its snow skiing slopes.

9 days Tour: For The Gourmets Wishing To Dig Into The Indian Platter!!

Indulge in the most varied and much talked about cuisines from different regions of India. Dinner in ethnic resorts at Amritsar and Jaipur ...Conversation with chefs at high end restaurants...Dinner at Bukhara, one of finest restaurants of the world that has served the likes of Bill Clinton. A Cooking class at Jaipur.

Had read somewhere in the bestseller novel (also now being made into a movie starring Julia Roberts) ‘Eat Pray and Love’ by Elizabeth Gilbert that Italians very well understand and appreciate the beauty of doing nothing. Rather, they are adept in the art of doing nothing. Interestingly, I was off  to Kerala while I came across this intriguing piece of information. The thought was appealing. And the realization was more so, in my case, in the wake of a schedule packed with sightseeing.

Before you think India goes off for a summer sleep from June till September you surely forgot to see North. Extreme North of India. Where Ladakh comes alive during the same period. In case you knew it and were already weighing this-years'-place-to-see add few more things to Ladakh's profile. Add these colorful monastic festivals to see  the best of region and religion.
