First snowfall of this season hits Tawang and Bum-La Pass

Tourists travelling to Tawang and Bum-La Pass in Arunachal Pradesh witnessed the first snowfall of the season. Snowfall in India can be witnessed by tourists in the Himalayan belt. The tourists along the Sino-India border at Arunachal Pradesh’s Tawang district, enjoyed the blessings of nature, and soon enough, the entire place was covered with white snow.
Bum-La Pass in Arunachal Pradesh is located at a height of 15,200 ft, and has a historical importance, as this is the road through which China invaded India during the War of 1962. Today it stands as a popular tourist destination, and Tawang is in fact only about 37 km away from this pass. Tawang is mostly visited during the winter season, which is from October to December.

Tawang’s charm
Tawang’s astounding beauty comes from its beautiful mountains, and nature’s abundant presence. It is a magical place for travellers, where you can take your mind off things. Then to experience snowfall in such a place is definitely a blessing.
