November 12, 2021 Dorsey Hagwood

Himachal Pradesh ([ɦɪmaːtʃəl prəd̪eːʃ] ( listen); literally "snow-laden province") is a state of India located in North India. Situated in the Western Himalayas, it is bordered by states of Jammu and Kashmir on the north, Punjab on the west, Haryana on the southwest, Uttarakhand on the southeast, and the Tibet Autonomous Region on the east. At its southernmost point, it also touches the state of Uttar Pradesh. The state's name was coined from the Sanskrit—Him means 'snow' and achal means 'land' or 'abode'—by acharya Diwakar Datt Sharma, one of the state's eminent Sanskrit scholars.

We enjoyed the time here, Whole area is very clean and surrounded by beautiful nature. One can spend 3-4 hours here easily, Boating is also available here. Most famous item here is Fish. People from near by towns come here to enjoy fish. Note :- You have to take a entry slim from office which is 1-1.5km before the dam.
