While on our visit we saw 51 species of hill birds and photographed 26 species. The Village experience is sure to leave one's heart one size bigger. We enjoyed the home-cooked delicious food, and were treated like long lost relatives! The stay in Village Guesthouses situated on hillsides with great views of snow capped peaks is rustic but never fails to charm.
Khali Estate has a vibrant history that the friendly owner lovingly called ‘Mamaji’ will be happy to share with you. Don’t miss the Jamini Roy paintings that are a part of the heritage of this wonderful property.
