inebriate break from your busy and boring city life then come to Sangla and live
couple days of your life. So many apple orchards are waiting for you across the mountain;

Kinnauri style houses are so fantastic on down to slope of the hills.

Take a short trek (around 2 K.M.) on by mountain trail and
