Uttarakhand (English: /ˌʊtəˈrɑːkʌnd/), officially the State of Uttarakhand (Uttarākhaṇḍ Rājya), formerly known as Uttaranchal, is a state in the northern part of India. It is often referred to as the Devbhumi (literally "Land of the Gods") due to many Hindu temples and pilgrimage centres found throughout the state. Uttarakhand is known for the natural environment of the Himalayas, the Bhabhar and the Terai. On 9 November 2000, Uttarakhand became the 27th state of the Republic of India, being created from the Himalayan and adjoining northwestern districts of Uttar Pradesh. It borders Tibet to the north; the Province No. 7 of Nepal to the east; and the Indian states of Uttar Pradesh to the south and Himachal Pradesh to the west and north-west as well as Haryana on its south-western corner. The state is divided into two divisions, Garhwal and Kumaon, with a total of 13 districts. The interim capital of Uttarakhand is Dehradun, the largest city of the state, which is a railhead. The High Court of the state is located in Nainital.

From lokhandi village you need to trek 2.5 Km to reach to the top. When in midway, you feel exhausted and feel low on energy. when you get to the place, it is like something you have been waiting to visit once in your entire life. Simply beautiful, thrilling and un-explainable experience. We forgot every pain and stress when standing on the top of this mountain area. Cool fresh breeza with animals grazing in herds, a natural pond of water, little cave on the top, a temple at the very top of the mountain. This is all in summer season May 2018, the guide told us about the beauty in winters. I can just imagine. Planned to come back there with a tent for overnight stay in nature alone. Just one thing, it is little too much for children to visit due to the trek being risky for kids only

It's unfortunate that in our country we don't value these heritage places. There is no maintenance and in fact not many local people even know about this place. The sign board can be easily missed by people. The paintings are faded now.
