7th December 2015
Drove from Chandigarh to Dehradun. Passed
through the well planned streets & junctions of Chandigarh and connected to
NH 21 then NH 22 & finally NH 72. As soon as we entered Uttarakhand, it was
completely green & mountainous. Natural beauty was amazing. We stopped at
many places to enjoy the gift of God which mankind is killing, leading to
chennai flood type of situations.
Visited Tapkeshwar Mahadev Temple :
I learned it has one of the oldest Shiva lings
is in the cave nearby where the river enters and water drops drip down on the
Shiva ling. The small cave with this splendid scenery is said to be once
resided by Dronacharya- the teacher of Pandavas and Kauravas in Hindu holy epic
Mahabharata written by Ved Vyas. The cave is named Drona Cave after his name.
Later I visited a Tibetan Buddhist Temple which
teaches religious skills. It is located
in Happy Valley, it commands grand views of the astounding valleys. The temple in itself is a
vibrant burst of colours, with its bright walls and flowering blooms in varied
colours. It was soul soothing.
