After wonderful cricket final at Dharmshala Stadium, I called Nitin to join me in Mcleodganj. He started from Palampur and after an hour we met at Mcleodganj... After spending some time around Mcleodganj and Bhagsunag, we though of moving towards Chamunda, where Nitin lives. Rather than taking the normal route of Yol and Chamunda, we moved towards a place called Funky Town to have some beer !!! Check out this Photo Journey to know about the place...
Funky town was a lovely and unique place around Dharmshala... Tibatian colonies around, modern culture in the middle of Himachali villages and nice restaurants around !!!
When we come down from Mcleodganj and reach Dharmshala Market, there is a narrow turn towards left.. This left turn takes us to Funky Village...
This whole stretch is very beautiful but road condition is not very good as compared to main roads in Himachal !!! But it's not too bad to rethink about taking this route.... especially when we want to enjoy natural beauty !!!
Most of the education and research institutions are on this route... After few kilometers there are some apartments for employees of Himachal Pradesh School Education Board !!!
After few kilometers through wonderful journey through snow covered hills, we reach the place where Funky Town is located... We take a narrow street on the right side which leads to Funky Town... On entering this street, we find lot of cottages, guest-houses, eating places and lot of young people roaming around... And people there beat any big city when it comes to fashion....
This place is actually called as Funky Town !!! Due to some reasons, it was closed on the day we reached.. Otherwise, it's found full most of the times... There is a nice swimming pool in middle of it. They serve nice snacks and drinks... The amazing part is it's location and kind of services they provide in a very small village...
I have visited Dharmshala many times, but this was first time I got to know about this place and was not lucky enough to spend some time here....
Time to go back and enjoy our drinks at Palampur !!! This photograph is form that street which leads to Dharmshala from Funky Town !!!
This whole stretch has amazing views of Dhauladhar mountain ranges, with all the peaks covered with snow.. Weather of these places is really amazing... especially in summers, there is no match....
So this was a quick PHOTO JOURNEY to Funky Town... Hope to visit this place again and share the actual action !!!
