Before the creation of Tehri Dam, Old Tehri village was located at the foot of surrounding mountains, but after the commissioning of Tehri Dam, the entire village was shifted to the summit of these mountains, and was named New Tehri. On our way to the dam, we had to pass through Chamba, one of the attractions of New Tehri that gets plenty of visitors every year.
We took a halt at Chamba during our trip to New Tehri. It is a fascinating Himalayan town, which preserves its good old charm. When we started from Chamba, and moved towards New Tehri, we were amazed by the beauty of its mountain slopes and lush greenery that covered the entire region. We passed through old Tehri en route to New Tehri, and found that it was covered with water from Tehri Dam. From this juncture, a road led to New Tehri, beautifully moving upwards with sharp turns. When we reached New Tehri, it was already dark and we were unable to witness its natural beauty.
The very next day, we came out of our hotel and were awestruck at the panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and a huge dam tucked between them. Our short trip to New Tehri was made memorable with these majestic views.
