Now race stated to search for hotel, my friends went to search and I stayed there and clicked more pics, after few minutes they came and told for two or three hotel which are very expensive above 2000 rs for day. By luck we reached at hotel Monarch, its very beautiful hotel and we found a room in just 700rs, but room is very well furnished. We were very tired after long journey so we decided to rest for a while and we slept.

There were no body on the road two three shops were there only where we packed out dinner and snacks and three bottle of Bacardi, temperature was very cold so we went back to hotel and on the TV in full sound to break silence. I came out from room it was very horrifying darkness and silence. Now we had our dinner and start chit chat, watched TV and slept.

We had breakfast and ready to explore Dhanaulti but there was nothing except Eco garden, so we went to ECO garden, it was very beautiful, nature gave many majestic view here, we clicked many pics. There was a way to go at top of the hill so we decided to go there we reached in 20 minutes. WOW!

In train plan had been change again and we decided to visit Haridwar also. Train reached at Haridwar and we hired a auto and reached at Har Ki Pudi where we did the Ganga Snan for 2 hours and clicked many pics. We were very hungry so we ate lunch and went on the way to the Mansa Devi temple which is situated on the top of the hill. Our condition became down and we tired totally in middle of the way but after took rest we stated to move again towards temple, finally we reached and prayed there and back to Haridwar to watch the Ganga Aarti. We came down but it was late people already seated in the front of Har ki Pudi. So we seated behind some people and waiting for start, when it started its felt like we blessed very much, its heavenly feeling. We prayed there and after Aarti we were seated on ghat, we can feel the sound of flowing water and coldness of water on face by air. After some time we went for railway station to take train for Delhi, we already booked our ticket so we got our seats easily and we slept. 

It was morning, we were in Delhi, trip was end with very joyful memory which we will keep for life time and tried to make next plan as soon as possible.⇡
