It nestles a very small Lake named 'Khurpa Tal' or 'Trowel Lake' as it is shaped like a Trowel, small and deep. It is a short drive of 11 km from Nainital and if you hike by foot down here, it would cover only 5 km as you would be following a shorter trail. This town is set at a height of 1,635 mts above sea level.Khurpatal looks more like a secret haven hidden amidst the hills and that is the reason why it still looks like a small countryside just waiting to be discovered.

The 9 m fall of water of Sahasradhara through the lime shelf unconsciously summons the visitors. It has an aged appeal and magnificence which only matches the healing powers of its waters. Sahastradhara also has a Sulphur spring near falls which has the medicinal properties and supposedly cures skin diseases or ailments. In addition to curing the skin disorders, the healing aqua also has additional restorative distinctiveness. Due to these properties of the waters, many people come here just to take a dip and then relax.

After the day out in sometimes chaotic and business prone Sahastradhara, a rejuvenating picnic near Baldi River would prove a welcome change for all. And since the river area overlooks the Sahasradhara, it turns out to be an ideal place to laze around in the splendor of natural world.

Tour of India - How I Spend My Time

How I Spend My Time








When I am not taking classes or studying, you can find me sitting in front of my pc surfing the net. I love to stumble upon sites of my interest. Mostly they all are related to humor, jokes, poetry or random articles about life, love. I love to read so it’s a good way for me of spending my time.

If I don’t feel like sitting on pc or doing nothing at all, than I go to my shop and sit over there and start working, and if feeling boring then I usually come to visit park which is near to my office. There is always something happening in front of me to make me smile.

If I am not on internet or not in shop than look for me in some park sitting on the bench. That time, I am just with my self, thinking about myself, what I have done, planning about future or sometimes just sitting with myself doing and thinking nothing at all.

You must be thinking up till now, all of the things that I have told, I didn’t reveal anything about me being with my friends, hanging out with them or anything like that. Well let me clear all the doubts, I love to meet new people and make friends and I have a long list of them. I am lucky that I have so many people who love me so much .Whenever I get time, I am with some of my closest pals. But if no one is around, well I told you where I shall be?





Thank you....

Tour of India - My Interests

My Interests

Yes I do have interests beyond the bits and bytes of computer and the list not small at all. So here it goes….
  • 3C’s( Cartoons, Comics, Comedy)
Starting with the 1st “C”, I love to watch cartoons. I can watch them anytime, anywhere. In general I love all of them but I do have some all time favorites i.e. Buggs Bunny, Tom & Jerry, Johny Bravo, Dexter, Mickey, DuckTales are just a few to mention.I guess I must stop here only cause in attempt to list a few, I shall miss most of them. Going next to 2nd “C”, I love to read comics. I read so many in my childhood and this was continued even when I joined college. Than with the busy routines and increased workload, I had to give up upon them. But I still love them and never miss a chance to read the one whenever and wherever I can. My last “C” must be obvious to you. I love to smile and that’s why I love comedy. I guess we all have a child somewhere in ourselves who loves to play around, play pranks on other. I never stop that child of my heart so you can always find me doing something naughty and exceptional. Well that’s what Aquarians are famous for isn’t it? As I just said, life is already so much tough and one must never miss any slightest chance to have a smile and to give to others. I just try to do that only.

Thank you....
