Another trip to another beautiful Himalayan village- Banshil, located among deodar trees. I will not tell you where for I want to keep the location of the place a secret- it is so beautiful and unspoiled.
The meadows were rolling green and bordered by forests full of deodar trees and birds and butterflies. I saw a common peacock butterfly and heard many birds.
We stayed at a new hut on the edge of the meadows. To get to the place you have to trek about 2km from where the road ends.
The village to which this meadows and forests belong has beautiful Jaunpuri homes. There is small gurgling stream beside the place.
Though the road to the place was bad ( hope it stays that way, so that people do not come and crowd the place), it is just too good- rolling meadows, deep forests, mountain stream, birds, butterflies, morning treks in the jungles, what more can anyone want on a holiday?
