I visited manali this diwali and I had the time of my life. Manali is like the best place to visit in india if you are looking for hillstations. I went with my friends so we discovered so many unknown places in manali and also tried river raftting which was so much fun
We also went for paragliding at rohtang pass. Dont do paragliding at solang valey, do it at rohtang pass, thats much better and more fun. I loved it.
