Dharchula

Dharchula is a small hilly town in the Pitthoragarh district of Uttrakhand, India. In Hindi ‘Dhar’ means peak and ‘Chula’ means stove. Dharchula is surrounded by the mountains of the Kumaun region and it is situated on the bank of the river Kali at the Indo- Nepal border. This is Dharchula town (India) surrounded by steep mountains. 
Other side town is of Nepal. Seperated by natural boundary of Kali River.
This is Dharchula at Night. Theres a bridge like Jhula Ghat from which one can cross the Kali river. At night 7:00 PM the bridge is closed. Guarded by Military forces.
One can see Himalayas at the background. Dharchula acts as a base camp for trekkers wh go for Adi Kailash, Om Parvat, Kailash Mansarovar. Dharchula indeed has the best location inspite of being low in altitude.
Kali River flowing.
Beautiful valleys and river along Dharchula 
High mountains and valleys while going to Gunji via Dharchula. The Dharchula - Kailash Mansarovar route is truly enriched with scenic beauty.
