For a lot of travelers in India, New Delhi is the capital of everything that they need to get away from as quickly as possible. Nevertheless, the town has some wonderful secrets that I would like to share with you.

New Delhi's hidden corners

In the local dialect, "Apani Dhani" means "Our Hamlet", an affectionate name given to the place by Ramesh C. Jangid, founder of the ecolodge and a pioneer of a form of militant tourism in India, especially in Rajasthan and his own native region of Nawalgarh.

A country with the size of a continent, India fascinates and will always leave you wanting more.

Travelling in India is a concentration of unique experiences, whether through its incomparable landscapes, its vibrant cities or unexpected encounters. And there is also the beauty of life, with its exceptional tones and colours. The omnipresent music, from the bells on the women’s feet to the litanies escaping from the temples; the sparkling colours of the saris and bright colours of the turbans.

Chamba is perhaps not one of the essential places to see when <a href="/india/">visiting India</a>, but it will certainly delight anyone who makes the effort to get there. Though famous primarily for its Hindu temples, the town also has many buildings dating from colonial times, which results in an amazing mixture of architectural styles! The temple complex of Lakshmi Narayan, built in the 10th century by Raja Sahil Verman, is Chamba's most remarkable in my opinion. Relatively small, it stands facing splendid mountains and is mainly frequented by locals who go there to pray, or simply to chat. Even the monkeys leaping from roof to roof do so in an entirely leisurely, relaxed manner! Imagine little hillside streets, an immense green in the center and a river flowing by and you will have a realistic picture of this small, unpretentious Indian town. To visit Chamba is above all to enjoy the pleasure of greeting children on their way to school, listening to the women praying at the temple, and savoring a cup of chai tea with locals who seem to have been here forever. In short, it is to discover an India little affected by mass Western tourism. And it's for these reasons I was won over by this town!
