Solo To Trio!

I was supposed to join one of my cousin and his friend and continue the journey. With breakfast at ZOSTEL I traveled back to Haridwar.

From Solo Journey now it was transformed to the Journey of a Trio.

We booked for a room opposite to Haridwar station and later we went for the Ganga Aarti. I was blessed once again. After the Aarti we had the Chole Puri and explored the streets of Haridwar.

Done with Haridwar the next city on the list was Dehradun.

Bye Bye Haridwar.

Sweetest station (Motichur)

 The early morning train took us to Dehradun.

Room hunting

And as of routine we hunted for a normal budget hotel and crashed in with the luggage. The hotel owner helped us with hiring a car and the sightseeing for the day began.

Indian Military Academy

If you have seen the movie Lakshya you just have to recall or try to remember it and you will have goosebumps all over. And if you are a patriotic person you can sense the patriotism in the atmosphere.

We were lucky to see the gates and somewhat interiors of IMA cause on the next day a Passing Out Parade was scheduled and the roads would be closed for all private vehicles.

No vehicles to be halt and no phones to be used I somehow managed to capture this picture.

Forest Research Institute

We entered a huge area which was no more than heaven.

 Greenery all over and essence of British Architecture in every structure you can see. It was a century old establishment with museums and forestry research college.

 The museums are happening to those who love to know about the types of plants, woods and etc. and we were not the one but the architecture made our day.

Museum

Seems to be a Library!

Robbers Cave (Guchhupani)

Robbers Cave was our last destination on the ride. It's more like a valley which allows a river to flow from its surface and the high mountains which allows a bit of sunlight to reach down.

 It was a long walk to remember. Walking in the ankle length water and the acupuncture from the stones below was something new and exciting.

  Before returning back the hot Maggi somewhere between the caves at Ek tha Tiger Food Stall  and some tea made the journey remarkable.

 You can also enjoy some refreshment at the stalls set up on the entrance of the Cave.
