So, we made a plan to go ahead of Taobutt and luckily we discovered one heavenly place SHAKARGARH. Its so long (6 hours) jungle trekking, but heavenly beautiful place. Therefore i decided to dedicate a separate thread to it. Please click on following link to visit SHAKARGARH

We could not go SHAKARGARH so thought to spend some time with kids at Taobutt Bala

This boy was not enjoying the time. May be he is scared of us or did not like our presence. This is what we judged from his face

Nice and refreshing thread!!! I have a question, if we go with family which place is best to stay where hotel arrangement is proper and scenery is good.
