The festivals and religious events of Bihar greatly reflect the culture of the region and attract a lot of tourists from all over the world. For a shopping enthusiast, there are several offerings that Bihar has to make.

Apart from the contemporary items that are available in shopping malls, the most attractive offering of Bihar is the traditional handicraft of the region. From Madhubani paintings to the bangle of Muzzafarpur, there are innumerable handicraft items in Bihar which are of great cultural and aesthetic value.

Madhubani paintings and Madhubani sarees are extremely popular in India and around the world. Madhubani paintings are mostly found in the Mithila region of Bihar and usually painted during auspicious occasions such as weddings and festivals. The paintings are usually based on themes such as marriage of gods and goddesses.

Another important handicraft of Bihar is the Khatwa, which is a kind of appliqué work and is made by cutting one kind of fabric and stitching it onto another fabric. You can also shop for colourful Sujini quilts. These quilts are traditionally made using old clothes for the inner stuffing. The exteriors of the quilts are usually decorated with embroidery that depicts religious scenes or village scenes.

Himachal Pradesh

The state of Himachal Pradesh is known for its natural beauty and scenic splendour. Nestled in the foothills of the majestic Himalayas, the state of Himachal Pradesh offers ambling hills, picturesque landscapes covered in lush green vegetation, sparkling rivers, apple orchards and warm and hospitable people. Himachal Pradesh is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country and attracts visitors from all over the country and the world.

Besides being a place of immense beauty, Himachal Pradesh is also a great shopping destination. If you love shopping, do not miss out on the beautiful shawls and caps traditional to Himachal Pradesh, during your next visit to the state. Due to the presence of Tibetan refugees and monks in the region, you can also find traditional Tibetan rugs, meditation bowls and beads, prayer wheels, flags and silver jewellery in Himachal Pradesh.

If you are a lover of handicrafts, Himachal Pradesh is a great place to shop! The carpets, metalware, paintings, woodwork and shawls made in Himachal Pradesh are very popular all around the globe. Painting, chiselling, woodwork and weaving are a part of a Himachali’s life and hence you can find a large number of handicraft items in Himachal Pradesh. Usually, most women in Himachal Pradesh take part in painting while the men practise carpentry.

Due to the extremely cold weathers in Himachal Pradesh, weaving wool has become a common practice. Almost every household owns a pit loom. In Himachal Pradesh, you can find shawls of exquisite beauty and varying thickness. Pick anything between a fine Pashmina to a coarse Desar shawl. The caps of Himachal Pradesh are very popular too. These caps are made in a typical style and differ from region to region in Himachal Pradesh. You can also shop for woollen shawls, sarees and trousers in Kinnaur. Rampur chaddars are another important tourist attraction of Himachal Pradesh.

Kashmir

Jammu and Kashmir is often referred to as ‘Paradise on Earth’. The beautiful landscape of Kashmir has attracted tourists from all over the world since ages. However, due to terror attacks and political turmoil, the tourism industry of Kashmir has faced a major setback. But the situation has shown some improvement in the recent years with more and more domestic and international tourists visiting this beautiful state.

There are a lot of things that you can shop for in Kashmir such as vintage maps, willow baskets and much more. You can get yourself a beautiful Namda, which is a traditional Kashmiri hand-woven carpet.

You can check out the local markets for samovars and trays made of copper. You can find these items in the Old City, but it is advisable not to venture out alone and use a sturdy guide’s help to steer through crowds. If you are fond of ornaments, do not forget to get yourself some beautiful Kashmiri lac ornaments. You may have seen them in handicraft expos in your city, but do not refrain from buying authentic lac ornaments when you are in Kashmir.

For food lovers, the Kashmiri chilli and Kashmiri zaffran are a must-take-home. Take the help of a certified guide to get yourself some real saffron. Kashmir is one of the few places in the world that grows saffron, the most delicate of spices. Ask your guide to take you to Pampore Fields, which is situated near Srinagar, where you can get some real saffron.

There are a few things to remember while venturing out or going shopping in Kashmir. Remember these tips from our India shopping guide:

  • Stick to places which are more crowded if you are venturing out alone.
  • If you want to visit the Old City, do so only with the help of a certified guide.
  • Do not leave your hotel at odd hours without proper identification on you.

We went for Manali to srinagar Bike tour. It was the best bike trip of my entire life It all started with the person named Shubham from thrillophilia who helped me in selecting the best trip and processed with my booking, all thanks to him! Without him I wouldn’t have been able to experience the best trip of my life. On arrival there, we met our tour guide Tani and our Mechanic Shashi about whom I have read a lot at thrillophilia reviews. These 2 guys were so supportive during the entire tour that no matter what happened they were always there to look after us. They always made sure we are safe and we are following them and there is no overtaking taking place. Tani, the tour guide, one chilled out person he is! Make sure you get him as your tour guide and Shashi as the mechanic as these guys will always make sure that they are there for you no matter what. And in the end, it’s all the Main man behind everything, Jimmy Sir. Thanks a lot Sir for making me experience the best trip of my life! Without you and your team this wouldn’t have been possible. Thanks for helping us out in every way possible. The roads here are difficult terrain to ride on. You gotta be careful. You gotta carry your gum boots during water logging which is the most difficult to cross. But these guys made sure that we were all safe and had sound health till we reached home. Not even a single person was hurt. Our group was a mixture of all age groups, I’m fact we even got to meet 2 people From the Indian navy as well. One mad kickass experience! Unbelievable. Reaching the worlds highest Pass, Khardungla Top, was the highest achievement of my life till date which happened on this trip! And if at all you wish to go, don’t forget to ask Tani and Shashi as your tour guide and mechanic, and go only through Jimmy Sir as he has the best team! Thanks a lot to everyone out there for which I thought the best way would be to write at thrillophilia reviews.
Anirudh Ghaty Kodachadri Trek
Excellent
"One hell of a crazy trek this one. The views were just splendid, and the organisers had it all charted out, and were extremely helpful. \n\nAn initial route through the forest is what we go through which is not that tiring, but after this stretch we move on to the most difficult part of the trek, where we come across the Hidlumane falls and we need to trek in quite a difficult terrain. Post all this stressful climbing, whatever the view you get is unmatched, all that pain, even though there physically, would have vanished mentally.\n\nBest to trek during monsoon or after the monsoon has receded to an extent as the hills are completely covered in green until the eyes can see. It's a treat for the eyes to feast on watching the western ghats in full glory."

Umesh Joshi Stok Kangri Trek
Excellent
First, I would like to say thank you to shyam@thrillophilia.com for their coordination and cooperation by writing my thrillophilia reviews.The trip was well planned and executed extremely well by the tour operators, I am very happy with the services provided by thrillophilia during this trek. 1) Our trek leaders Salman and Stenzin are really a wonderful Guys, they were very helpful and supportive all the time during trekking.Other staff members were also supportive and helpful. 2) Food quality and quantity was good. 3) Accommodation was good, camps were in good shape, neat and clean and quite spacious. Let's review the Trek about which I had read a lot at thrillophilia reviews. No doubt Stok trek was awesome as well as difficult. It would not be correct if I will say Stok trek is the most beautiful trek ???? but there is something which makes this trek different from all other treks and which is the main reason to attract tourist from every corner of the word, that is its height. At 20,500 feet Stok Kangri is the highest trekkable summit in India (6,153 m), what google says but when I googled it bit more and try to find if there is any other trek exist in this word which is above Stok, I did not get any information so I assume this is the highest trekkable summit in world ???? Highlights of this Trek 1) Trekking till base camp is not very tiring, which itself a big achievement as you would be able to achieve the height of 16300 feet ???? and the best part what I found in this trek is “you don’t need to walk too many hours to reach base camp” 2-4 hours walk a day is max you will walk. 2) Leh treks are totally different from Himachal and Uttrakhand treks in terms of scenic beauty, it’s a different experience, you would be able to see some splendid views of the Stok mountain ranges. 3) The last day “Summit day” will give you a totally different experience. You start your trek at night time which generally don’t happen in other treks. Moreover, you will get a chance to do snow trekking in summers as well “Only in summit Day”. Here is a great saying "the best view comes after the hardest climb" Very True!!! Preparation: I should say this is not a trek for first time trekkers but still if someone wants to give a try, Start your preparation at least 2 months before this trek as last day “Summit Day” is really a challenging one, compare to other days where you have to just walk 2-4 hours max here on final day you have to walk for a 12 – 14 hours and Trekking at night on Snow is bit tricky task and it becomes more challenging when you have to walk by putting Crampons on your shoes as rightly suggested by many people at thrillophilia reviews. a) Aim for 5 km running in 30 minutes b) Do breathing exercise which helps you a lot during this trek especially. c) Drink as much as water you can.
Had a great sar pass trekking experience.

This was my first paragliding experience and I was so thrilled and scared both at the same time. This March I was going to Gangtok and came to know about the paragliding activity there and booked the same with Thrillophilia and made the most of the thrills and spills of Paragliding. After heading to the paragliding spot in Ranka at Gangtok. I was accompanied by a trained pilot throughout the entire activity when we soared at a height of 1300- 2200 meters. The best thing about Thrillophilia is that it not only gives you an option to choose between medium and high fly but regardless of the package you choose, the ride from the landing site to the take-off point is all included. I chose the high fly package where I and my certified pilot rose at a height of 2200 meters, marveling at nature’s beauty underneath. After this paragliding trip, I must say that this has been my best so far, given the whole safety protocols that Thrillophilia adhered to besides arranging a trip to the Ranka monastery. Thus, I recommend Thrillophilia with all my heart, for such out-of-the-box experiences!

The work from home seemed quite relaxing until I started to feel trapped. Thus, come 2021, and kept on looking for a workstation trip where I could stay amidst nature and still work. On came Thrillophilia as a genie and arranged the most fabulous stay in Manali. The three-bedroom cottage I was staying in could accommodate nine people and I set off with 4 of my friends. We loved the serene Kullu Valley setting but met our office targets with full gusto. The stay was not just beautiful being situated amidst apple orchards but was a sanitized space with staff performing hygiene checks daily. My friends made the most of the indoor workspaces while I brought about the outdoor furniture to do office work while not missing out on nature’s grandeur. Totally loved how Thrillophilia at such short notice, arranged for a homestay that had Wi-Fi connectivity, power backup and a laptop-friendly workspace. I still miss our evenings where we would gorge on local snacks cooked in the kitchen, by a chef using fresh seasonal produce. If WFM has been a mood dampener for you, give Thrillophilia a try, to arrange a nourishing stay in the hills!

Who does not dream of a farmhouse stay amidst the rolling Himalayan Mountains and an emerald green forest? Yes, I am no different because I have craved for such an experience all my life and I am extremely glad that Thrillophilia came on board to grant all that I desired. My 2 days one night experiential stay at a Farmhouse in Gangtok not just let me have a perfect getaway but so much more. I learnt about terrace farming, plucked ripe fruits from the trees, enjoyed picnics along the streams, and tried my hands on organic farming. I still miss my bedroom in the homestay that had a skylight right above the bed to let me stargaze endlessly. Thank you Thrillophilia for such a splendid experience!
