Silk Route Resort: The Resort is surrounded by hills and wonderfully situated in the midst of great natural beauty. One can enjoy the beauty of green hills which surrounds the resort. The resort is located in vast plain area which cannot be imagined in hilly terrain. The rooms have great view of surrounding, at night you can hear the music of water flowing in river which is just adjacent to the resort. If you are lucky you can also hear the local music from far away village located on the hill top. The frequency of ups and down of the tune of the local melody with the breeze will mesmerize you. I wondered in the green hills, white scattered cloud.
