Chaukori is a small town situated in the Pithoragarh district of Uttarakhand. The town is shaped like a bowl and hence the name “Chaukori”. The place offers a picturesque view of the Western Himalayan range and the lush green forests of oaks, pines surrounding the region. From here you can see the gorgeous snowy peaks of Nanda Devi, Nanda Kot and the Panchchuli group
Bageshwar town is situated at the confluence of Saryu and Gomati rivers. The place is of religious and historical importance. Bageshwar is mentioned in various Puranas and is associated with Lord Shiva. Historically Bageshwar was a famous trade mart between Kumaon and Tibet and Bhotia traders used to come here to barter Tibetan wool, salt, borax in exchange for local produce products like carpets. It is surrounded by the mountains of Nileshwar and Bhileshwar.
I also covered Baijnath in this trip as it is near Bageshwar. Baijnath is a small town in Bageshwar district of Uttarakhand and situated on the banks of river Gomati. Earlier known as “Kartikeyapura” Baijnath was the capital of the Katyuri Dynasty which ruled the Kumaon region between the 7th century to the 12th century AD.
