A Colorful Journey through Paragliders of Himachal Pradesh

My dear friends of Hive, let me take you today on a trip to Asman. The sky of Himachal Pradesh where paragliders are seen floating in the air. Some are seen in the air, some are seen on the ground, some are red and some are blue. Of course the unevenness is clear, but different types of paragliders have decorated the sky like a rainbow. Gliders should be seen flying like birds as far as the eye can see.

Have you ever got a chance to fly in the air, to be a part of the sky? The matter of airplane is different, there the environment is almost safe, but sitting in a paraglider, it seems as if we have dropped ourselves from the open sky without any protection. Whenever the glider goes up or comes down, then the body feels G-force as if the heart has come out of the body, and the next moment it has gone to the feet like a heartbeat.

I would like to say that some feelings or experiences can never be put into words, this experience is also somewhat similar. Let's go ahead, get my cat, when she got bored while playing with me and went for a walk, then I became lonely and sitting alone, I thought, let me also come for a walk. And as usual I go for a walk to the famous paragliding landing site of Beed, I love watching paragliders flying in the air there.

From home I cross wheat fields with camera in hand, in other hand I have apples which I buy from the shop near the house. The boy in the shop is his friend and his name is Dharmendra, he is a nice boy. On foot, I reach the landing site in the next 40 minutes saying “Have a nice day” to the people of the village. After saying hi-bye to my acquaintances, I sit on one side.

My favorite thing to do is to sit on the sidelines and watch the gliders fly by. Paragliding State Championship was held in Beed some time ago, in which pilots from India and abroad participated and showed their art. Some pilots are flying solo and landing on the landing, many times while landing the gliders collide with the public like me sitting on the side. Some pilots are packing the glider and preparing the tandem.

A man is selling Bhel-Puri at the landing site, Bhel-Puri is an Indian snack which people eat as breakfast in the morning and evening. New pilots are practicing. I am sitting and looking at them thinking how difficult it is to learn a skill. A pilot in a green colored paraglider is flying over the Shiva temple located in Bari village. Seeing the pilot flying over the pine forests, I always think that if the paraglider hits the trees, will the pilot be safe.

Some public is sitting in the glider and shooting themselves with gopro, people are making memories to show it to their relatives at home. Colorful threads are scattered on the grass which looks amazing. I was really scared once when four paragliders started descending together. I thought it would collide but it did not happen. Looking at Sky, it seems that so many paragliders look like flying ants.

Some paragliders are flying over the Dhauladhar mountain range, some over the Hanumangarh peak and some over the Ahju ridge. After spending about 3 hours at the landing site, I leave for home. Now I am feeling hungry, so I go home, have lunch and play with my cat again.
