Hey guys... Welcome to my blog...
In this post I am gonna to tell you about my beautiful journey to a beautiful
city. Yes It is Nainital.
So, let’s get strated…..
First of all I would like to give
you a small glimpse of Nainital. Nainital or we can say city of lake, is a beautiful hill station in Uttrakhand, India. It is
surrounded by beautiful mountains and it has Naini Lake in the centre which is
6837 ft above the sea level which adds charm on its beauty. So let’s feel Nainital
through this article.
Let’s Go…..
My journey starts from Noida
(Delhi NCR) at around 10:00 o’clock at night. We were four friends going
together and travelling with friends happen to be the best trip. And this was
going to be one of my best trip. So early in the morning we had booked a cab
for Nainital and I was very excited as this was going to be my first Nainital
trip and first overnight cab journey though I have travelled overnight journey
by bus but in cab it was my first overnight journey.
We packed our bags and got ready
for a wonderful journey. At 9:30 pm our cab reached outside our hotel and
literary I was super excited. We kept our bags inside cabs carrier and we too
got inside the cab. One of my friends sat
on front seat and we three sat on the back seat, and we decided the one who will sit
next to the driver will stay wake up and talked to the driver throughout the
journey as the driver should not feel sleepy. And at around 10:00 pm our
journey started and we headed towards Nainital.
We were enjoying the ride while
moving forward and after two hours of journey we stopped at a tea stall to have
a cup of tea (I must say tea stalls becomes part of journey while we travel). There
we had tea and click some pictures as memories. After having tea and snacks we
moved forward.
Starting of two hours of journey,
I didn’t feel sleepy but after that I could not resist myself and I took a nap. And the nap was no longer a nap; it became a one hour
sleep. So I woke up after one hour and I saw two of my friends were sleeping,
the driver was driving the car and my friend who was sat next to driver,
chatting with him (I was like Oh..! everything is as per the plan). I saw
everything was okay and again I took a nap. Around 2 o’clock again I woke up
and I saw our cab stopped and I was wandering, where are we?? Then I saw there
was a railway crossing and cabs were in queue, waiting for the train to pass.
We wait for around 30 minutes for train to pass and gate to be opened; I don’t
know why this much of time taken by the train to pass, might be of some
technical problem. Meanwhile we got off the cab and enjoyed the moment. There
was dark all around, kind of peace there and we four friends standing somewhere
on the mid of the road. It was a fun experience. After that we headed towards
Nainital and I slept for some hrs and woke up few minutes before reaching
Nainital.
It was around 5 o’clock in the
morning, Just before Reaching Nainital we stopped our car at a place from where
the whole Nainital city can be seen. Literally the city was looking stunning
from that point as we could see the sun was about to rise and the city was
partially dark, with some dim light coming out of the building and it was
looking very beautiful on that frame. We spent some time over there to feel the beauty
of Nainital. After that we headed towards Nainital city.
Now we had been entered to the
city and were looking for the hotel. We were searching for the hotels that should
have lake view room, but we didn’t get as the lake view rooms were filled up, I
think because of our mistake, that we hadn’t book the hotel in advance or
probably we can say not our mistake as the trip was planned instantly and we
didn’t get time to book the hotel in advance. After that we decided not bothered
about lake view room, just get the room and take rest as we were exhausted
after an 8 hr of journey.
Finally we got a kind of flat where
two rooms were there and rooms were actually good but main part was “lake view”.
Yes Lake was visible but not properly, as trees were coming in between the
balcony of the flat and the Naini Lake. So after getting room we told our cab
driver to park the car in parking area. (Note:
There is a parking space for tourist cab next to Naini Lake and also there is some
parking fee for it. Roadside parking is not allowed). So after that we
decided to take rest now, and to explore Nainital later.
Summary:
This was my journey from Noida to
Nainital. We enjoyed throughout the journey and had lot of fun. It took around
7 to 8 hrs to reach Nainital. It was a short trip. We stayed there only for 2 Days
and 1 Night. Round trip cost us around 7000 to 8000 INR (Only the cab charges and I
don’t remember the exact figure).
This article is not finished yet;
