Have you ever been to a place where nature entices you? Yes, it’s called Nainital, the hill station in Kumaon region of India’s Uttarakhand. It is located at an altitude of 2084 meters.
What a beauty! What a weather! I bet, you will love this place in any season of year. I visited this place during rainy days and believe me it was the best of days. I was awestruck by seeing the valleys, lakes, greenery, foggy weather and flowers. The air is fresh and population density is low. In addition to all this, you will get everything of your needs. Enjoy watching migratory birds as they come to lake to add extra shine to this place. Don’t forget to visit ancient temples around, you will get more information there about the origin and myths related to this place. There is one Naina Devi Hindu Temple on its North shore. Sports activities are umpteen, contact your hotel manager for more details. I loved paragliding, the charges per person was 1500 INR that time. You can go for trekking and cable car rides too.
Near to Nainital, there is other place called Bhimtaal, which is a town and Nagar Panchayat in Nainitaal district. It is located at an altitude of 1370 meters above sea level. You will love the Bhimtaal lake as it also has a beautiful fish aquarium at its centre. For reaching there, you could prefer boating. You have a wonderful chance to see wide varieties of sea fishes here. So, don’t miss this if you ever visit this place.
Bhimtaal is also good because you could easily find lake side hotels here at surprisingly lower rates.
Apart from all this, you can have a good time walking around Lake and doing window-shopping at near by shops. You can enjoy boating at lake during daytime. This place is very peaceful and clean. The beauty of this place would refresh your memories and would encourage you to start your journey fresh. Long drive around valleys of Nainitaal & Bhimtaal would make you crazy and glued to the curvy ends of road.
Anytime I hear word Nainital, I wish to visit again and have the lovely moments back. No wonder the name perfectly suits this place naini i.e, eye and taal i.e, lake. This eye shaped lake is the emerald color eye of Lord Parvati as per Hindu mythology. This lake would really make your eye a camera and you will willingly capture as many moments as you can.
