Valley of Flowers
Photograph one of the Himalayas' most spectacular natural landscapes — a sweeping valley carpeted in billions of wildflowers in purples, yellows, reds, whites, and pinks, with Pushpawati River cascading through the centre and glaciated peaks forming a dramatic frame above.
Go early in the morning — afternoon clouds build rapidly and rain falls almost daily in July–August. A polarising filter helps cut glare from the dew-wet flowers. Macro photography of individual flowers is deeply rewarding.
