Entrancing, Enriching, Enlightening, these adjectives don’t really do justice to the experience one has traveled through, the ‘JULLAY’ land.

A long due vacation ever since I came across its scenic beauty on the internet where all I could do is admire its magnificence or buy a few prints which never seemed to fulfill the desire to experience the same. Plans were set in motion, leave applications dropped, payments made, tickets booked, preparations started for the much-awaited voyage with 21 strangers endorsing a common interest and soon we felt our plans being shattered as the Kashmir issue didn’t seem to subside.
