This gives me Immense pleasure to Invite you for the next DPC Photo Trip to Thailand and Cambodia .

DPC announces First walk of this season to the Ghats of Yamuna.

 

A unique place to click people , portrait and amazing landscapes with migrant birds.

 

Big rivers have throughout history been important to the development of capitals. This Photowalk is  dedicated to the Yamuna river that has been an important yet silent witness to Delhi’s history. The tour starts from the Yamuna at Nigambodh Ghat which unfolds the ritualistic devotion of how the Hindus treat the historic river.

 

The Yamuna is a goddess to the eyes of her devotees despite its current struggles with pollution. Topping it off with an unforgettable view of the Jama Masjid back through the streets of Old Delhi, discovering the Yamuna route is truly a unique and memorable experience.

 

The beginning of legend: Nigambodh ghat seen from across the river. These are the sacred waters within which Brahma recovered the book of knowledge and the powers of divinity, which he had lost. Nigambodh Ghat is thus a place of ending, it marks the finality of the mortal core; but it is also the source of a regeneration of immortal wisdom, of sacred knowledge. Death and immortality exist together.

 

The great epics and sacred texts tell us about the beauty and power of the river Yamuna. This is the daughter of the sun god; sister of Yama, the god of death; lover of Krishna; sister to that other great river goddess, Ganga.The Gods themselves, Brahma and Shiva, are said to worship her.

 

The Ras Lila paintings of Lord Krishna consorting with his gopis are magical, ethereal, depictions of the river surrounded by lush sacred groves. On her banks, the great Sufi saint Nizamuddin Aulia spread his divine message. This is a river revered through antiquity; a river by which a unique culture flourished.

 

Today, however, as the Yamuna winds her course through the 22 kilometer stretch of Delhi, she bears no resemblance to her legend. Decades of wanton disregard have turned her into nothing more than a stinking sewer that is biologically ‘dead’ as it flows out of Delhi.

 

Yet there is a little stretch, a place where the story of Indraprastha begins; the story of the Pandavas, the story of Delhi. Here, despite the filth and degradation. From Nigambodh Ghat to the Lal Pul or the Old Iron Bridge, you discover ways of life that are still intertwined with the river and its sacred avatar.

 

Nearest Metro Kashmere Gate or Red Fort on the Heritage Lane 

 

Please Note : if you register and confirm that you will be attending and do not turn up, you have denied someone as enthusiastic as you, a chance of the walk. Therefore, please register and confirm only if you are reasonably certain to make it on the day :)

Wear comfortable shoes, carry your water bottle and keep your camera batteries charged ! :)

-- 

 

Land of jaw-dropping Himalayan landscapes, stunning lakes, Buddhist monasteries and sub-zero temperatures that chill you to the bone. It’s one of those rare gems that can be visited almost all-year round. However, winter lends an even more special touch. 

 

Why you should visit in winters

 

Ladakh has become the winter destination of choice for adventure-seekers and travelers looking to experience the beauty of the Himalayas. Here is where icy treks and motorcycle expeditions are in a class of their own. Where prayer flags flutter in the wind and stupas stand tall. The erstwhile kingdom has an air of mystique that draws you in no matter how much of a seasoned traveler you are.

 

Ladakh is a great place to visit anytime of the year but if you want to see in all its raw beauty, winter is the time to go. It freezes over and only the brave dare to venture into its heart. What you come away with are memories that last forever. It may sound cliched but it’s a fact. Ladakh will warm your heart and soul.

 

Winter Temperature

 

Ladakh is one of the coldest regions in India so expect extreme temperatures from the months of October to March. Temperature in winters remain between -5 degree Celsius to -25 degree Celsius, making it an ideal to witness cold desert climate. 

 

 

The number of tourists drops in winter owing to the harsh weather and for adventurous travelers, this means being able to enjoy Ladakh without interruption. Trekkers looking for a challenge also find themselves thoroughly tested, which is only of the reasons why winter treks in the region are so popular.
