Journey to Hill Station Paneu (Paneo) and Naag Temple (Lesser Known Gem of Hills)

I always love to visit hilltops because they provide the ultimate beauty and adventure. My journeys to Hatu Peak Narkanda, Prashar Lake in Mandi, and to the ancient wooden temple of Skhati Devi in Chhatrari are some of its examples. This time, I got a chance to visit an ancient Naag Temple situated at Paneu (Paneo) hill station where a British rest house is situated. This hill station and Naag temple are situated 7 KM away from Kungash in Anni Tehsil of Kullu. The ancient Naag Temple is situated at walking distance from the main top and gets a chance to walk through the tall (some are around 50 feet of height) deodar (Pine) Trees. The last six-kilometer road to the Paneo is not metaled and it is very narrow at some points accompanied by a steep climb. This area is predominately an apple-growing belt and we can find many apple orchids on the way.

Around the temple, we can find a small pond that gets its water from rain. The temple also resembles the famous Kamroo Naag temple and we can say it is a small replica of it. Though, this temple has its own uniqueness and beauty and deserves at least one visit. Paneu is not very famous and not many people know about it and we can only find a British time rest house at the top and it was under renovation at the time of my visit. We can also find the setup of permanent tents at the top. Overall it is a good place for a peaceful stay and for enjoying nature. This hilltop place is 140 KM from Shimla and 70 KM from Rampur Buser via Luhri. The last 6-7 KMs of the road is not metaled and advisable for drivers with experience of these roads.

Himachal Pradesh is full of many such surprises and many such places are not very famous or known to others like the Maa Bhramani Temple Hill-top near Sansal, Baijnath which I tracked a few years back. Mostly, people run to hill stations that are easily accessible to them. The problem with famous hill-stations is that they are over-saturated and we find crowds everywhere. The advantage with lesser-known hill-stations is that we can truly enjoy nature at these places and we are only with nature so no one comes between you and nature.

Review Hotel Sunrise View Rameswaram

Hotel Sunrise View is an above average budget hotel situated in Holly city of Rameswaram. This hotel is just a walking distance away from main Rameswaram temple where Jyotirling is situated. People can easily reach temple barefoot from this hotel and mostly lines to temple entrance start from the main entrance of hotel. Rameswaram is small fishing town and it is hard to find world class facilities here. Slowly, this city is progressing with the increase in inflow of tourists. Hotel Sunrise View is one such good option available in front of people who are looking for good and safe stay option in Rameswaram. In this hotel double room is available for Rs 1500 only and twin room for Rs 1800 only. People can also go for luxury room available at the rate of Rs 4500. (All rates with Taxes). I stayed in this hotel for two days and one night; and, overall I had a great experience in this hotel.
