Part VI
After reaching in Manikaran, we crossed a huge torn-away bridge that was nice to cross but at the same time very scary to cross owing to its bad condition. Then we paid visit to a famous Gurudwara there and had langar, a system of having food sitting on floor in different rows. Then came the best part of the trip to Manikaran. We bought some potatoes and raw rice and tied them separately in different pieces of clothes. Now you must be wondering why were we doing all this. This was all done to see the great wonders of the naturally boiling waters at Manikaran.
Manikaran is known for its natural heaters that keep the water boiling and none there uses LPG gas or stove for cooking, all cooking is done simply by hanging food and utensils in small areas where there are boiling waters. My dad then hanged the cloth having potatoes in one such boiling water shallow well sort of an area. Being kids, we thought what a fun and when we saw the hot vapors rising out of the well and the boiled potatoes, we almost mistook it as a magic and wondered. But it was anyways-great fun.
Having done all these experiments again and again, we then strolled the market area and bought some jute hats and caps. After lunch we resumed our way back to Manali and saw other major attractions too. Later at night we returned to our hotel for a night stay. The next day we started on our way back home and here ended my trip to Kullu Manali and Manikaran!
