    The prices of the hotel rooms really are variable in that area . Thank you for the walk about !

    Although almost universally known as Vashisht, the local name of the village is Bosht; Vashisht(a) being the name of the Devta( local god).
    Across the river is the village of Goshal, home of Gautam Rishi, another of the Seven Sages.

    I will try to stay at this hotel in next trip as the view is amazing. I had bypassed Vashisht inl last trip. It used to have private baths at the Hot Springs, when I visited 50 yrs ago. Diwali festivities in Kullu should be better than in Manali as Kullu is bigger town famous for outdoors festivals. You can make few videos about it. Great video coverage of village festivities and beautiful
    views. Good work as usual. Cheers!

      @@olivermasih2587 Yes, please do as its thanks to comments like mine that steered Gabriel in the right direction of avoiding visiting months like Jan and Feb when he was in Sikkim and instead visit the himalayas in Nov/Dec instead. Look at the weather for Darjeeling or Gangtok on google today and you will find that there is an abundance of sunshine to follow in the next few days simply because of the month that we're in. And while you may get a few overcast days thrown in the majority of days in November will be quite clear unlike Jan/Feb and the same applies to the Himalayas of Himachal. While I am not familiar with gurudwaras I am fairly knowledgable on the Indian Himalayas since I was born and brought up in the region. Cheers.

The people appear to be friendly and sociable; an overall pleasant place and the cost is very reasonable to really enjoy. The next destination should be interesting, you mentioned you haven't been there, so there should be some surprises.
