I had been for a week's holiday to the town of Manali in the Himalayan
foothills in mid June. This is the area where the ancient trading
route from Tibet to the India passes through, from the Hindu valley of
Kulu/Manali, over the 4000m Rohtang pass into the Buddhist valley of
Spiti, leading to Ladakh, and Tibet beyond. This city is in the same
general area where the Dalai Lama stays in exile. It is incredibly
popular as a summer tourist spot for anyone who wants to escape the
summer heat in India, with the added advantage that you can see ice
and snow at the Rohtang pass, a short drive away, a rarity for the
large majority of the population of India. Anyway, the first set of
photographs, all taken in Manali town are here:

Comments and criticism always welcome.

Cheers
