Hohenschwangau village
Three months back, i was in Munich for a week and during that time, got a chance to visit some nearby places. This was taken near Neuschwanstein castle. From Hohenschwangau village, where we park our cars, we can either walk, take a horse drawn carriage or a Bus to reach the castle. We decided to take and walk . it takes around 30 to 45 mins. It s very beautiful place. This snap was while we were walking to the castle.

i took this snap while visiting lake Chiemsee near Munich. Chiemsee is a fresh water lake in Bavaria and is 1 hour journey from Munich towards Salzburg.
It was very interesting to watch this girl play with the telescope. Guess she wanted to see the stars!

Nubra valley
Ladakh ("land of high passes and once part of the Silk Route") is a region in the state of Jammu and Kashmir in Northern India sandwiched between the Karakoram mountain range to the north and the Himalayas to the south.
This photo was taken from Nubra valley, which is towards the north and about 130 kms from Leh. This is also one of those rare places where you can see the bactrian camels (two-humped) and also one of the very few places where you find greenery in Ladakh. To reach Nubra valley, you have to pass Khardung La pass, which is the highest motorable road in the world.
