Myth: Hill stations are NOT safe in monsoon. Reality: Not all hill stations are unsafe. Despite receiving heavy rainfall #McLeodGanj is safe to visit even during monsoon. In fact, I like it more during this time as the terrain transforms into a scenic paradise, and there is less crowd. So, you have all the beautiful places to yourself. Take for example the #BhagsuWaterfall situated at Bhagsu village behind Bhagsunath Temple near McLeod Gan. This mid-size waterfall reaches the peak of its glory and majesty during the monsoon season when the water falls from a height of around 30 feet and looks captivating and breathtakingly beautiful. More importantly, you won’t have to jostle with hundreds of people to get that solo picture of yours without random people peeping into it. If you are planning to visit McLeod Ganj any time soon, I would recommend staying at @fortuneparkmokshamcleodganj for peace, serenity, stunning valley views and great hospitality.

An historic temple that was rebuilt after the Kangra earthquake of the early 20th century. The area around the temple is quite well maintained and the pool is very popular in warm weather. The efforts of locals to clean up the rubbish dropped by inconsiderate tourists means the path to the nearby waterfall is still mostly clean, but on a weekend the litter problem increases from selfish people who come to see nature, but destroy it at the same time by treating like the filthy cities they come from. Sadly the town of Bhagsu is not the peaceful retreat for spiritualism and meditation that it once was. Hordes of weekend tourists now treat Bhagsu as somewhere for them to party and make noise all night, and they pay no respect to the peaceful destination for quiet reflection it has always been. The once quite, peaceful beauty of the area is being ruined by these people. If the local community want to maintain the idyllic reputation this area once had, they need to stop this decline. If things keep going the way they are, the town will be ruined in the next few years. I have visited 21 states in India and the valley around Bhagsu was always my favourite part of this wonderful country. However the town of Bhagsu is now a foul place to be on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday night when it is flooded by party goers from nearby states (it is still lovely during the week). I have been here 6 times and spent more than a year just staying in Bhagsu. I doubt I will return again.

Bhagsunath Temple, Kangra A medieval shrine, Bhagsunath is Shiva Temple situated about 3kms from Mcleodganj. The temple has been highly revered by the Hindus and the Gorkha Community. The sacred shrine is famed for its two pools that are believed to have healing properties. The best time to visit Bhagsunath Temple is during the annual fair that takes place here in the month of September. The Dal Lake, Kotwali Bazaar and Bhagsu Fall are the main attractions around this holy shrine. History:The legend has that King Bhagsu built this temple after seeking forgiveness from Snake God. It is believed that Nag Devta was raged in anger as King Bhagsu stole water from the sacred Nag Dal Lake here. Later, the king repented and built the temple in reverence to Nag Devta. According to another legend, this shrine was the patronage of a specific Gorkha community called Bhagsuwala (after the God Bhagsunag). It is also believed that these rulers built the two pools of water here with tiger-head spouts. A double-story wooden house for pilgrims was also built by them.

Serene amidst the Rain - A Spiritual Haven Bhagsunag Temple is a true gem nestled in the mountains. Visiting on a rainy day added to the mystical atmosphere. The temple's architecture is beautiful, with intricate details that showcase its rich history. Even with the rain, the courtyard was filled with a sense of peace. The sound of the waterfall nearby and the chanting created a truly calming experience. It's a must-visit for anyone seeking a spiritual connection or simply a tranquil escape amidst nature's beauty. The walk up to the temple is invigorating and the views are breathtaking. Despite the weather, the temple's charm shone through, leaving a lasting impression.
