Shanti
Thats what I would call this place!
Julley Everyone,
A beautiful day out here in the Himalayas yet calling it another beautiful day out here in the Himalayas as we wondering Nayalag mountain. The place around 7 to 8 km towards North from Baragran village is a hidden gem in the Himalayas especially in the Kullu region of Himachal Pradesh where lies this magical Wonderland!
It was once the hometown of one of my close friend who used to say, when we were in school that I have to go to Nayalag which would take me around two hours extra from Kullu where our School was to visit Nayalag.
I used to wonder that what is Nayalag where is that place and finally it was the time when I decided to explore this beautiful Wonderland though there were not many houses in this place but the pace at this was the most Shanti Location all around the Himalayas and the Himalayan Villages. It was really really very peaceful moment guys in the whole journey. Looked like a dream.
Natures Signboards.
In order to visit and reach Nayalag, We had to cover the whole distance and we had to go somewhere beyong Shigli mountain and beyond the Village Pangan. There were many villages to which among them was there's a village there were other villages to called Dangdli Dhar, Dephri and much more.
I saw this magical crazy board that I think someone has made out of the wooden log and named it Darsha Cottage and placed it on an apple tree so I think it's a good idea to prepare a sign board in nature with the nature.
I saw most of the people over here in the village they are maintaining harmony and unity among themselves and they are going towards the sustainable life that even there ancestors are following till date so are they they can even place a banner out at the place but instead what they have decided is to check the log and write the name of their cottage and place it on the apple tree.
That's the main reason that attracted me to go closer to the place and capture the photograph of it and I would love to share it with you guys that see how the people over here they are living the life peacefully and keeping everything as minimalistic as they could even the roofs of the houses that I saw most of them they were made up of tin and most of them they were even they were off month and the walls of the house it was of wood and mud and rocks so it was a house totally toxic free with the harmful chemicals harmful cement sand what ever nowadays is going on in the market even the payments that are and making the house full of electronic technology which would which would release out various harmful radiations which are harmful for our lives but instead I saw that in this village till date it felt like that I have been to somewhat an ancient.
I would say where people are living in a village and how many is something that they are maintaining and the and they are living and farming by themselves.
The main source of income of these people was farming and most of the people. They were farmers over had used to farm and the farming that they did was a sort of step farming as here in the mountains the land is not flat and that's the main reason why most of the farmers they have maintained their lands such a way that they can farm and they are made up in various steps so that even they can plan the trees and even the vegetables and even other crops.
So the main source of income was they were orchardist and most of them they had their own Apple trees and apple farms which they sourced throughout the country and it was something that what kept them going.. There were very few houses in the shop hardly I saw 3 to 4 houses and I was sure sure enough that even they were relatives among themselves and they had a good decision about a property which was covered by a vast amount of a pretty number of apple trees. I would say and another thing that I noticed is that most of the apple trees and their box it was covered and it was painted with some paste and I remember that most of the people over here they do their thing in order to protect the bark of the tree. As during the winters and the fall season the leaves of the trees it is not over there in the trees.
So the direct sunlight is something that affects the tree and it burns the bark of the tree which would make a tree die s so what farmers do is the paint it out with some paste in order to protect it from the direct sunlight and even from the cold which is at the place when this place is used to get covered under thick blanket of snow so that was the technique which the local farmers use and has been using since many years from the past many years.
The locals at the plasce lived their lives as they wanted to and that's what something I noticed when I visited this darshan village and which was somewhat around 5 km is before Nayalag village and it is really a wonderful place guys and I would love to capture more and would love to explore this place even properly in my upcoming post upcoming expeditions so and they are living and farming by themselves.
