I have been to Manali two years back in 2016. I visited in the month of December. The temperature was around -6°c. As I reside in Delhi, -6°c is extreme child for me. I was staying in a hotel along with my family. The hotal charged us Rs 700 per day for a room. The hotel was located just besides the bustand. The place is awesome to visit with families and loved once. The market in Manali mostly contains handloom products. The prices of any products are higher in Manali, probably beacause the supply is less. In the evening my family and I walked through the market place, had some clicks. The next morning we went to Solang valley. Before visiting Solang the driver will stop you in a place where you can rent the Jackets and boots. Its very necessary as Solang is completely covered with snow and the place is very slippery. We get to skid in Solang. So, its one of the best place to visit and is very affordable.
