I have earlier also posted pictures and videos of Kangra Toy Train. This time again, I am back with another video of the Kangra Toy Train. This video is taken from a distance unlike the previous video (Click Here to See) which was taken from close. I often get a chance to see this train because the route of this train and my native village is same. This narrow gauge train travels 164 KM distance from Pathankot in Plains to the Joginder Nagar in the Hills. This train was constructed by British to take machinery to Joginder Nagar for the construction of a Power Station near Joginder Nagar. To Check the Pics this Train Click Here

Maa Vaishno Devi visit and Pictures

It is always a very great experience to visit Mata Vaishno Devi shrine in J&K and this time also, I am feeling very relaxed and energetic after getting the blessings of Maa Vaishno. Every year, Lakhs of Vaishno Devi devotees come to visit shrine from various parts of India and world.

17th century Maa Tarna (Shyamakali) Temple, Mandi (Himachal)

I have visited many ancient and beautiful temples of the Himachal and found them all unique in their beauty and construction. With changing landscape, we can see changes in the designs of temples. From the ancient wood temple of Shakti Devi in Chamba to Masroor Rock temple in Kangra , all temples in Himachal offer something unique and special. Today, I will talk about the Tarna Mata temple situated in the Mandi city of Himachal Pradesh that is also known as Choti Kashi because of 80 plus temples. The actual name of the temple is Shyamakali Temple and it was built by king Shyam Sen in the 17th century on the hill called Tarna; therefore, this temple has got its name of Tarna Mata from the name of the hill on which it was built. This temple is also a sign of victory of the Mandi kingdom because Raja Shyam Sen built this temple after winning a battle against the rival king of Suket Jeet Sen. Raja Shyam Sen of Mandi wished from Maa Kali to grant him a win over the Raja J...
