Do you believe in fairy land ?

Valley of Flowers situated high in the Himalayas of the Uttaranchal India, at an altitude of 3,600 meters above sea-level, protected by snowy mountains. For centuries unknown to humans, this enchanting valley burst into its youthful beauty every year, as the snow melts with the advent of summer. Every year, the valley was splashed with color as it bloomed with hundreds of kinds of flowers, taking on various shades of colors as months progressed. The locals, always knew of the existence of the valley, and believed that it was inhabited by fairies.

Nature condescended to bless humans with this heavenly sight, unveil the beauty and floral splendours of the valley. It was declared a national park in 1982, and now it is a World Heritage Site.
