Thank you @IshantHP_ig for sharing with us! There are a lot of interesting information.

Unfortunately, I’m not experienced in Yoga(((

But I love Indian 100% cotton clothes.

Your flowers pictures are amazing! So bright colors! As I can see, these are blooming dahlias. I love it. There in Ukraine we have blooming dahlias in autumn on September. Past I planted them in my garden.

Thank you for tagging me!

The City of Gods, way up the north of India looks like a very interesting place to visit @IshantHP_ig Being so far up north I guess from a weather point of view you have to pick the right time of year to visit!

[IshantHP_ig]

Hi @MoniDi thanks for the kind words on the post of Patanjali, literally the place is really interesting for the visitors.

Yes i practice yoga daily and it’s a part of my daily routine because yoga strengthens our mind and soul.

The campus is lush green and totally suitable for the children and friendly for everyone.

Do you like to practice yoga ?

are you planning to visit India ?

[AdrianLunsong]

This is a great, well thought out post @IshantHP_ig ! Thanks for sharing it with us! Lots of interesting information, all presented clearly and love the photos too! It certainly looks like a nice place to visit, more so for folks into yoga! I’ve only tried beginners yoga once but I’m soooo not good at it. Flexibility is not something I’m naturally gifted at!

[IshantHP_ig]

Hey @IshantHP_ig ,

I’ve never practised yoga before like I’ve mentioned in a previous comment. I don’t have any plans of visiting India soon but a friend of mine just got back from there and she was impressed by the people and how happy they were. Perhaps, I will go to India in the future.

Thank you for your reply!
