A small emerald lake set in a wide alpine meadow ringed by deodar forest, often called the "Mini Switzerland of India".
Khajjiar's saucer-shaped meadow surrounds a small lake at the centre, framed on all sides by dense deodar forest and distant snow peaks. The open grassland, grazing horses and forest edge give photographers a rare flat, expansive alpine setting in the Himalayas.
