After checking into hotel we didn't get a time to rest because we were getting late, we got ready as soon as possible after having our lunch, we left for Attari Wagah Border we reached there by 4 p.m evening exactly on time.. We were really excited for the parade show, its mainly called the Beating Retreat Ceremony.

The beauty of this place is indescribable it was amazing, shining bright golden colour located in the middle of the pool (sarovar). We also had dinner there at the Langar which is known for serving food to everyone as equally together time by time. Not only the temple all the surrounding was beautiful you can also visit stores near the temple. They keep some amazing stuffs.

Day 4

Fourth day of our trip we got some time to rest, We had our lunch after that we enrouted to Dalhousie , Himachal Pradesh. The views are really beautiful mountains covered up with snows , we arrrived by the evening at our hotel in Dalhousie. It was beautiful but we got little disappointed because weather was not good it was raining, so we have to stay at hotel. At night we enjoyed the DJ party after that we had our dinner and the food was delicious & tasty. While we were having our awesome dinner suddenly the amazing thing happened it started snowing, our excitement & happiness was way too much. The time was around 12.30 a.m midnight we actually forgotten how cold was out there it was freezing already but including the snowfall it was icy cold the temperature was below the freezing point. We forgot about the time & cold it was being 3 a.m night we were still awake.. At last one of the hotel staff came to asked to go to our rooms & take sleep otherwise we'll get sick, it was funny...
