Pathankot , Mukerian , Talwara , Dasua are the near by Cities to Kharota. 
I had visited there with one of my cousin. The way to kharota is not simple I Mean one had to go through a lot of turns it's not NH road.
We went there in our own car but we didn't able to reach our destination by are own we had to take help from alot of people in our way about the direction. And we were in Himachal Pradesh people were so helpful to us that we can't discribe in words. We had really very very nice time there because that place is full of beauty and peacefulness. One can easily feel relaxed there under any hard time. The chilling cold wind flowing there making me realising that am on the top of the world and can achieve anything from there. Although the mountains of dhuladhar ranges were continuously making me feel small but the happiness inside me was not letting me fell small.

NAWALA

Nawala is a festival of Gaddi tribe inhabiting the valleys of Kangra, Chamba and some parts of mandi and Kullu. And I belong to district Hamirpur, so I never heard about Nawal in my life. As from last one and half year I am leaving in Dharamshala I came to know about this amazing festival Nawala. And thankfully I got chance to watch this festival live at one of my friend house. It was one of the best experience in my life. This is celebrated individually at a time when a householder thinks it proper, but it is a must once in a life time. Gaddis always invoke Shiva's help in misfortunes, ailments and for success in certain undertaking. While doing so, they undertake to perform His worship. The special prayer is called Nawala and may be offered at the time of the marriage, on the construction of a new house, recovery from illness, etc. This is a sort of thank-giving service offered to their deity Shiva. Navwala is said to have been derived from the word Navmala, meaning a new gar...
