On our summer vacation to Uttarakhand, Dehradun was first on the itinerary. We spent a few days exploring this city in the Garhwal region.
Start at the HeartThe Clock Tower, known as the Ghanta Ghar, is a popular landmark in the heart of Dehradun. Several major roads intersect at this location. If you are a shopping enthusiast, head to the Ghanta Ghar and walk to Paltan Bazaar, a busy market nearby.
Junior was glued to the window of the Shatabdi Express as it chugged out of New Delhi Railway Station and proceeded toward its final destination, Dehradun. The capital of Uttarakhand.
While the summer sun shone harshly in Pune, we escaped to the cooler climes of the mountains. A long summer vacation in Uttarakhand. A much-awaited tryst with the mighty Himalayas.
Our first destination was Dehradun. Located in the Garhwal region of the state, the city is a gateway to the hills and the mountains beyond.
