Dalhausie : A journey through photographs :- |
| Ajit Singh Memorial :- Sardar
Ajit Singh, a great freedom fighter, breathed his last on the day
India gained independence, 15th August, 1947. His 'Samadhi' is located
at Dalhousie's Panjphulla, a picturesque spot with a natural tank
and water flowing under small bridges from which the place takes
its name. Sardar Ajit Singh was the uncle of martyr Bhagat Singh.
At Panjphulla, there is a 'Samarak' in the memory of Sardar Ajit
Singh. On the way to Panchpula is Satdhara springs gurgling with
refreshing water, believed to contain some medicinal properties.
Panchpula stream is the main source of water supply to Dalhousie
and Bahloon. The stream springs from the north side of DayanKund
and runs down a picturesque ravine to the waterworks of Panchpula. |

| Bakrota Hills :- (
2,085 metres ) 4.8 km ) The fascinating and bewitching Bakrota Hills
offer to the tourists the brisk walk round the hills besides a grand
view of snow-clad peaks. It is one of the finest and soul refreshing
places in Dalhousie. The matchless beauty of Bakrote Hills haunts
you in a different way and leaves you speechless. Thick 'Deodar'
forests seem like a beautiful green carpet covering the surrounding
hills. Soul refreshing pure mountain air refreshes you at every
turn and you just begin to mix your inner heart with the beauty
of nature. Dalhousie experiences heavy snowfall during winter and
then majestic Bakrota Hills start the white magic of snow and enjoy.

One of the best thing about walking through Bakrota Hills is the unpredictable
come and go of the sunshine through 'Deodar' trees. Every turn comes
up with a new scene showing the hide and seek of the sunshine. A journey
to Dalhousie is incomplete if you do not take a walk through this
magical paradise. It is surely one of the must visiting places in
the world. |

that he used to drink water from this place during his stay in Dalhousie.
