Khajjiar Dalhousie

The bowl-shaped, pine-ringed meadow at Khajjiar is a major tourist draw, 22km down the Chamba road from Dalhousie. It's touted as a 'mini-Switzerland' and would be attractive if it weren't constantly thronged by holidaymakers and horse-ride hawkers. The ugly cluster of restaurants at its north end doesn't help either, though hidden among it you could seek out Khajjinag Temple.
