It is rightly said that everybody
needs peace and deserves to remain happy when he or she is bored out of his or
her mind after many months from his or her hectic schedule. Nestled in the
mountains of Himalayas, Dehradun is a location where you could experience the
essence of travelling down your own native place many years back in his
childhood days. It has also earned recognition as one of the best destinations
for resorts in Northern India. This
‘Abode of God’ is marked by the beauty of nature with exotic trees. If you are
planning a tour to Dehradun to have a good time with your family members, then
here are some tourist attractions that would help you know the city in a better
way.
- Robber’s Cave
This cave which is still maintained
by Uttarakhand is a natural cave that is trespassed by a shining crystal clear
rivulet. It is almost 10 meters in height and 600 meters in length. The cave
exudes the beauty of nature to the greatest extent because it has been formed
in a conglomerate limestone area. Imagine your kids here splashing water
scintillating with silvery white shades of water in the quiet, still atmosphere
as they move out from one of the resortsin Dehradun.
- Rajaji National Park
This national park is especially
meant for wildlife enthusiasts. While the Asian elephant might allure you and
be something that you might had never seen, the Indian hare would drift your
minds to the cold regions worldwide. In addition, the flora constitutes pine
and deciduous forests predominantly that give you peace as they bask in broad
daylight. Interestingly, 315 species of birds including the deep blue
kingfisher, and the ringneck-type pheasant are something worth watching as they
portray their beauty in rich color shades. Bird watching would surely be
amazing if you opt for staying in one of the resorts in Dehradun.
- Tapkeshwar Temple
Located along the Garhi Cantt
Road, the Tapkeshwar Temple is religiously significant due to its mesmerizing
beauty of the shivalinga on which the water trickles down continuously. The
water disappears away in a form of a stream that can be viewed several yards
away. The cool sulphur water springs is something where a pilgrim can take a
bath when he is visiting the temple as he spends his day out from one of the
unique resorts in Northern India. On
Shivratri the pilgrims pay homage to Lord Shiva and attend the fair that is
organized ostentatiously.
- The Central Braille Press
Located along the pristine
regions of Dehradun, this press is one of the oldest Braille presses spread
across Asia. The prime objective of setting this press is to make Braille
literature simple for the blind. If you are staying in one of the resorts in Dehradun, you must surely
visit this tourist spot. The old British architecture gives you a feeling of
visiting a vintage inspired monument. This press is the largest producer of
Braille text books in India as it publishes books in different languages such
as Hindi, English, Punjabi, Urdu, and Sanskrit. Everything from an old manual printing
machine to an advanced digital printing machine takes care of supreme quality
printing.
- The Sahastradhara
The Sahastradhara also known as
the ‘thousand fold spring’ boasts a water drip amidst limestones stalactites
which provides ample sulphur water for the sulphur springs. While your kids try
out assorted rides in ‘Joyland’, an amusement park, you can keep gazing to the
vast green expanses of the valley from the ropeway high up in the light blue
sky. Every mode of transport makes it feasible for you to visit Sahastradhara.
The tourist spot indeed revives you from within and brings in peace and
refreshment for you to get started off with your normal routine after a few
days journey at Dehradun. The hills in steps are appealing to the eyes and enhance
your interest to watch nature.
