After spending a relax day at Chitrakote waterfall, it was time to start the return journey, but via some unseen places of Chattisgarh.

First leg of the drive was from Chitrakote Waterfall to Raipur, and on the way I visited Tatamari and Gangrel Dam. The experience of the gangrel dam was amazing specially during monsoon.

From there I drove to Raipur to my friend's place who hosted for lunch and we had some amazing discussions.

From Raipur I drove to Kwardha and then took the forest route to Bhoramdev and stayed for the night at a beautiful property, Bhoramdeo Forest Retreat.

Unseen Beautiful Culture of Pangi Valley - Dakhrain Mela - Pangi EP8

With the confusion of the dates of Dakhrain Mela at Hudan Bhatori, I left from killar at around 8 AM. This mela was one of my major agenda item for this Pangi valley drive. hence I wanted to document it anyways possible.

With the rain last night, drive from Killar to Hudan via Takwas and Tundru was absolutely amazing and breathtaking. I was literally driving through the clouds at most part of the drive to Hudan.

I reached Hudan by 9:15 am and I was right on time. People were gathering at Hudan bhatori, getting ready to carry the deity to bheem taal for the prayers and festivals.

I left my other stuff at the homestay at Hudan Bhatori, and carried the bare essential camera items and walked with the procession all the way to bheem taal.

There I spend almost 6 hours recording the beautiful Pangwali and Bhotiya culture in the form dances, music, dresses, food etc.

at around 5 pm I left back for the homestay, had few cups of tea with host and then drove to the hudan monastery for making call back at home.
