| Chopta |
If there’s one love story that never ends in my life, it’s me and the mountains. Every time I think I’ve seen it all, the Himalayas smirk and say, “Beta, abhi toh party shuru hui hai.” So, one fine midnight, me and three of my long-lost friends decided to embark on a road trip to a mysterious, not-so-touristy place called Chopta.
Google had whispered that Chopta is also called the Mini Switzerland of India, and honestly, that was enough to get us packing. Located about 450 km from Delhi via Rishikesh, Chopta is the base point for the famous Tungnath Temple (the highest Shiva temple in the world) and the Chandrashila trek. Basically, this was going to be part road trip, part spiritual cleanse, and part “let’s test our car tires against Himalayan roads.”
