Ok first things first, Lava is a small hill station located about 72 kilometres from the town of Gorubathan of the State of West Bengal, India. Lava has an altitude of 7,016 feet and it is one of the few places in West Bengal where we receive some snow in Winters.

So I went with my Friend on a Bike, as Bike Rides are awesome. I wanted to see if we could find some Snowfall but it wasn't on our Luck.

So while we were riding I noticed that the Houses up in the Hills are very Decorative and it looks Beautiful. I wanted to take a Picture of a House but I thought it would look like we were stalking.

The roads we travelled were very Steep, we even found a place where Mountains were being cut to make Roads. Living on hills is really tough, I have to say that.

Here are some Pictures we took while we were there.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words but the ones you took are worth a million :). Absolutely nice shots,and an amazing rough land terrain. So it also snows in India.I have added something useful to my knowledge. Thanks to you.

Yes, we do have Snowfalls in Winters. But on a sad note, ​I have to say this that I have yet to witness a snowfall.

Leave Snowfall I haven't​ even seen, ​Snow.

That seems like a very fun trip. The scenery in India are really beautiful. Too bad the ongoing construction kinda ruin the scenery, but that's just how progress are. Thanks for the photos. A blessed day to you.

India is a developing country so Construction is pretty common to see. Plus mountains require even more safeguarding so its good to see they are getting the​ Job done in protecting Riders.

Yes, ​it was indeed a very fun Trip.

great pictures ! you are almost a professional :)
more power to you !!

I am just a Casual Photographer but I love taking Pictures that's​ for sure.

w00o0ww such a nice place. thanx for sharing your beautiful travel experience with us. keep sharing like that. Thumbs up.

I will be travelling to another Hill Station at the end of this month. That would be fun.

This lookes amazing! The landscape is so ridget and rough, but still there are wonderful plants to see. Even if the construction kinda workes against scene, it also fits in. It showes modern day society expanding into the nature and bending the landscape down to what we want it to be.

I hope to see more posts like this from you! Really nice :)

Making roads on Mountains is a tough job. And I really hope the next time I visit there it will be all neat and clean.

As for Scenery, there was​​ plenty to see but I could only take a few Pictures. My hands were freezing and I was afraid I would drop my Smartphone into Oblivion.

I will look out for that post! And it does not look that cold. Hopefully next time it will be warmer and for the Scenery: It would be awesome to see a comparison between that place during and after the construction :)

Yea, bike rides is fun! I like exploring places around me too. Why do u hav a free pass to roam everywhere?

As I got my Documents and license ceased by Cops for no reason at all. Now I have a Seizure List which acts as a Free pass for one Month. No Cops can stop me now.

Hehe

What is a seizure list? Is it because you have medical condition seizure? This is what i understand haha

Oops sorry spelling error. I meant Cease list. They ceased by Documents.

Ah, looks fun
