Manali literally means
the ‘Home of Manu’. Manu is the Hindu mythological character who
is supposed to have survived when the world was drowned in a
flood. Its cool atmosphere provides a perfect haven for the ones
afflicted by the hot Indian summers. In Manali, one can find
high mountains shrouded by silent snows and deep boulder strewn
gorges, thick forests, filled with cool breezes and bird song,
fields of wild flowers, small picturesque hamlets and
fruit-laden orchards. |
