500 _aAward-winning writer Priyanka Pradhan takes you on a journey into the Himalayas through its stories. You’ll find tales of snow leopards and mountain ghouls, bagpiping girls and itchy herbs, and stories even as old as 500 years! See the beautiful state of Uttarakhand, resplendent in its colourful customs and traditional costumes, taste the sweet-sour wild berries, feel the chilly autumn wind on your skin and smell the musky pine forests, in seventeen stories. Welcome to the mountains. What is so magical about the mountains? Must be the crisp, icy breeze laden with the heady aroma of alpine flora, or perhaps watching the muddy snowmelt slowly to reveal iridescent green meadows underneath, makes it appear magical. Even the birds sing a sweeter tune in the mountains.
