Sample Answer

India is a multicultural country with many beautiful tourist attractions. For a number of factors like location, ease of travel and popularity, some destinations remain less-known. Uttarakhand is home to a few such places that are difficult to reach as they are nestled deep into the Himalayan mountain ranges.

One such place is Deoria Taal, a lake situated on a hilltop near a village called Sari. Located at a distance of 250 kilometers from the state capital Dehradun, it is a quaint lakeside place. I love its beautiful surroundings and breathtaking views. One can clearly see two of the tallest peaks in the Himalayan range from the viewpoint near the lake. The diversity of the flowers and the trees, coupled with the serenity of the water body provide a soothing and calm environment to the visitors, making it an ideal spot for a weekend visit.

To reach the lake, visitors have to trek for about three kilometers. The nearby area is surrounded by dense forests on high peaks and is largely uninhabited. Moreover, Deoria is a freshwater lake with a grassy area next to it, making it perfect for camping in the lap of nature. Also, there is a lot of wildlife that comes to the lake to drink water. So, lucky visitors can enjoy the wildlife as well. Even though the lake is open throughout the year, summer is the best time to visit this place.
