Landour - A Love Affair With Winding Walks & Chocolate Pancakes | Chalte Hain Phir | Travel Podcast

- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- Chalte Hain Phir is a travel podcast series meant to uncover the secret gems and their stories. And its fitting that the pilot episode be about Landour - the place I fell in love with 4 years back.
Nestled among the Dehradun Himalayas, Landour is a small cantonment town (just 5 kms away from Mussoorie) thats's home to India's favourite author, Ruskin Bond. From pine forests to vintage cottages to cosy bakeries, Landour seems like an old colonial town lost in time. The winding roads, the fresh mountain air and the fact that Landour is in a no-new-construction zone, have made it possible to preserve its old world charm and character for so many decades.
And this travel podcast is a traveler's guide to know everything about Landour:
02:30 How to reach Landour
03:06 Places to visit in Landour and delicacies at Char Dukan
04:17 Best Time To Visit Landour
04:51 Where to stay in Landour - History of Rokeby Manor & La villa Bethany
06:33 Cozy cafes of Landour
07:04 Interesting stories hidden in the old bungalows, anglican churches and Landour language school
08:00 The unique phenomenon of Winterline - A natural occurrence that happens only in Mussoorie & Switzerland

Anybody who has been to landour, can totally correlate with your narration. Probably the best narration I ever heard
Landour is my favourite...❤❤🌹🌹...imagine driving through Landour's narrow yet those heavenly pathways. ..wow...walking is what makes it almost..."walking in paradise"
Cars must not be allowed inside Landour. Recently I was in this beautiful town and we heard of a fight over parking. Most of the people coming these days just come for posting pics of IG , not really absorbing the feel of the place.
True
Very true

Really nice narration. I have stayed in landour for 3 years as a kid above lal tibba. Nice to revisit.
Wow..
Very nicely narrated.. nothing less to a movie thank you for the video will definitely visit in Jan
What a heartfelt video..such complete information within 10 minutes.
Glad it was helpful!
I love mountains in monsoon. Everything is so green and you can walk alongside clouds. Must visit some hillstation in monsoon.
"THE"BEST DOCUMENTARY
Wow! How well he has described
Thanks man. Very kind of you :)
I've grown up reading Ruskin Bond and have always wanted to be in Landour ever since I know this place. So when the first time I visited the place, it was such a surreal experience because everything that I read all my childhood came to life and it kind of teleported me to something different altogether.
I was in Massurie this October. But couldn't go to Landour. I have heard that famous children book writer Ruskin Bond lives here with his family. Your Lively narration has made an long-lasting imprint of Landour on my mind. Iam going there sooner than later.
Hope you get to visit soon 😊
I just hope that all you RUclipsrs..like you can put across the real beauty of India...for us Indians...who always think that evrything outside India is best...but khud kuch nahi karenge...Best wishes for you and all who are doing it...I hope every one of us can do our best
Aysa Jaga dekh ke Dil ko shanti milta hai ...love from Assam ❤️
Bilkul. This place is both serene and peaceful
While I was listening to your experience, it was like I am in Landour
Hopefully someday I'll take you there :)
Exactly
Truly said
Felt exactly same
I just stumbled upon your channel and that's the best thing that happened this month,♥️
I'm so glad you enjoyed it :)
@@THEUNTRAVELSHOW abhishek 😍😍😍 you are doing great job, I'm from dehradun and a travel lover.
@@THEUNTRAVELSHOWhi guys, I'm from Shillong,Meghalaya and I just watched your feature on Landour and I felt the urge to go there and spend a few days. Just like you n Amarjeet,I will always favour the mountains to other landscapes... Big fan already!
Same here
Roger that! Ahana
Don’t know how and why this video got recommended to me...never thought will watch it till the end but I did...in the age of wannabe vlogers...I can feel this video to be straight from the heart!...great info about the place 👍...and the part about driving is so true! Not everyone’s cuppa tea!! 😅 I have been to Ivy so I know!!
Thanks a bunch Tara. Indeed the drive can get a bit tricky especially through the narrow uphill lanes
Ur naration is mesmerizing along wit this beautiful nature scenery
Thanks so much 😊
Abhishek, kya bolta hai bhai tu !!! Bas sunte rehne ka man karta hai.
Wish you all the success with this beautiful channel.
bahot shukriya dost :)
Oh! Beautifully narrated, The more I watch it the better it looks like. It seems as if I were there, if one can make ppl feel as they are present in the same place. What can be better than that..
Looking forward to watching more videos
RUclips suggested me this and I immediately subscribed because of the narration skills!
Wow, thank you so much. Welcome aboard :)
Dear Abhishek:
I was bored working from home on some spreadsheets and lots of emails and so I took a short break of watching youtube and this video of yours came in front of me. Being a wanderer I allowed my curiosity and I compliment you on the ability to connect and engage with the viewers within first few seconds. The way you described the place, I was in Landour for the next 10 minutes.
I did subscribed to your channel and look forward to more such off-grid places. It takes pride to see that even our country has beautiful mountains and weather and one doesn't need to travel abroad.
Stay safe.
Best wishes from Mumbai.
Thats such a sweet heartfelt message Yagnesh. This is what keeps us going. We''l be coming up with lots more stories and destinations in the coming weeks.
Welcome aboard :)
Living in Canada 🇨🇦 as you describe this beautiful place information 👍👍
Now willing to visit there in Future
Thanks Brother
The narrative was so good that it was the icing on the cake ..cake off course LANDOUR ..now in my bucket list . Hope we cross each other there I get a chance to listen to your travel stories . Buddy you have that charm that Nilesh Mishra has in his Voice & narration .
That's a huuuuge compliment 😍😍
This is how you make someone fall in love with a place !! 😍
sir aapne toh yaar mujhe bhi jane me majhbur kar diya yaha jane me .... very good place and love to visit this place in my journey...😊😊😍😍😍😍
Thats what a content creator wants 😊
@@THEUNTRAVELSHOW absolutely sir 😊
Having grown up in Dehradun...I have visited Landour many times...this video brings back such beautiful memories of childhood. I dunno when will I go there in life specially during CoVID...but thank you for virtually taking me there!! Lovely video!
So nice of you :)
Glad it could invoke the nostalgia
Amazing video. Just before this video I watched how that couple shifted to Landour from the hustle and bustle of the metro cities. It's quite amazing to listen to such people that follows their dreams against all odds. Also I have made up my mind that I will visit places like Landour whenever possible.
Keep bringing such beautiful stories and narratives to us..
Cheers 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
Ur channel is the best thing that happened to me in months.🥰 i accidentally found it. I live in australia but born and brought up in dehradun. The way u show my city is amazing. I kind of almost cried watching ur videos of uttrakhand.
At present i am going through a major “homesick” phase and every fibre of my being want to return back to dehradun but due to professional reasons i cant. Ur videos r fulfilling that void in a major way.
God bless u brother. Keep going back to my uttrakhand and keep posting ur experiences here. Atleast i can see it through u.
Love ur work
Such a lovely video. I was having a bad day and then suddenly I came across this video. It was so soothing. Was feeling like ye video Khatam hi na ho😊😊😊😊😊
Wow. To be able to make someone happy. This makes it all worth it 😊
i felt every bit of what you described ..Landour hai hi aisi jagah
I was in Mussouri / Landour / Dhanaulty / Dehradun for a week riding my rented scooty all around the mountain roads and man , I loved it .
Landour really had that serenity in it , That as you called it out - Art of doing Nothing feel attached to it .
I have this long bloody funny story I would just write anyway . My first day in mussorie we landed on main library chawk - quickly landed ourself in nearest hotel on mall road to rest and
seeing the rush on mall road , I actually lost my cool like what have I got myself into .
# The next day first thing I did , Packed my bag , rented a scooty and went to opposite direction of mussorie anywhere . Goal was to go 5 km away from this hustle bustle and think what to do next and Just after 1 km I was feeling okay and then 3-4 km after we reached this awesome mind blowing place - Landour . I was not expecting this .
Truly a memorable experience to this day and Best bakery I ever had to this day ( Landour bakerhouse ) . and seeing this video was just like putting words to those experiences .
How do you write such stuff is truly mind blowing to me . So again hats off ...
Haha. My first experience was somewhat similar :D
Actually i have this awesome Job which I really love a lot still I have started putting work onto my skills aside to become a digital nomad after 3-6 years . and seeing your work I just feel I can get some very valuable practical output from you . A more practical aspect and views towards this direction how you chose to do it . Can you help me ..?
If yes please drop me a msg on... .. If no totally fine .. 🙌
If yes
Beautiful landour.. My maasi's place.. Here I made the most beautiful memories with my sister
With that kind of narration, I am definitely visiting Landour this winters. Awesome channel👍
Thanka a ton Alok. Hope you get to visit soon :)
I was in Landour last March .I just fell in love with that place .
We went to the Bakehouse and had amazing cakes and pastries. I would love to go there again.
Such A Brilliant video... Fell in love with Landour ❤️ will surely visit Landour soon..
Keep Travelling .. love ur videos 👍
Thanks a ton
I've been to landour thrice in the past 2 years. This place is so homely. I love this video. I relate to every word in this video. I can't thank you enough. I feel so peaceful. My heart longs for landour :) and this video made me feel like home. You're doing an incredible job there.
Very kind of you. Glad you liked it 😊
Beautifully made video. Travel videos should be made like this. Appreciate your endeavour. ❤
Thanks a lot 😊
Your voice is healingly soothing...which makes the video more therapeutic....keep up the good work👍👍👍
That's very kind of you Sanika 😊🙏
What a beautiful narration and glimpse of this magnificent locale. Truly appreciate it. Possessing a penchant for travel myself - especially in the mountains - I keep searching for good concise travel videos that summarize the very basics of the place. After a long haul I came across one. You may also want to try a place known as Kasar Devi in Almora, not sure if you have been there, it is pretty.
Immersed in your audio and video, relaxed and easy going like a fairy tale....
Wow, thank you so much :)
Your narration is too good......while seeing the video I thought I was there and you also have a very good voice.......👍👍👍👍
Thanks a lot man. Really appreciate it 💛😊
I'm thankful to RUclips to give me this video In my suggestions 🙏😃
Happy to know you enjoyed it Ashutosh 😊
Oh....such a beautiful place, amazing video👌👌 I must say that I am impressed with your narrating style.
Thanx for the information 👍
Thanks a lot 😊
Your voice is so so calming ! As if my own ! The way you touched each aspect is reflects the truth about this heavenly place.
Thank you Promila :)
Wonderful to visit Landour with you again. Miss it. Have spent some wonderful days there as a youngster as my Dad was in the armed forces. It really is like stepping back in time. Nothing compares to the smell of pine trees.
I'm jealous 😊
Dil ko sukoon dene vali aawaz
❤️🙏😇🕊️🥰
I used to think Landour was my secret, untill I got trapped in midst of a lengthy traffic jam. Me and my cousins always used to walk to landour from mussoorie, thr cafes, the views of valleys and mountains are just splendid, it's something i'm too selfish to share but alas it's out now.
Walk? Is it at walkable distance?
Yes for mussoorie people it's very common we don't travel in vehicles there
@@vadanshikasajwan5375 my dream destination. Could you please share some information about budget staying options there for a couple.
@@shubhramukherjee5773 check close by Himalayan club.
@@YogiBhava thank you...
Man you are awesome....the way you created this video is just so so beautiful. I could feel myself wandering around there alongwith you 😄😄
You just FEEL beautiful......
Thank you so much Sujata😀
Very well narrated ! Thoroughly enjoyed.
Glad to hear it! 😊💛
What a narration! Your voice gave a great feel of the place.
Thanks a lot Arijeet 🤗
This was indeed beautifully narrated and also really helpful unlike most travel videos out there. Thank you for putting in all the effort. :) Keep up the amazing work.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks ! Landour is a lovely memory , always cherished .
I am Speechless. This Landour video of yours is a Masterpiece. I replayed it thrice and waiting for the day to visit this place.
Outstanding Narration!!
Thanks so much. Hope you get to visit soon 😊
Narretion Nd presentation maaar gayaa ji..seedha Dil vichchon
So wonderful to see Landour again! Multiple times in my youth, lived just past Prakash's quaint Enid Blyton shop, at Kilmarnock - named for the place in Scotland where Johnny Walker whisky is made. Prakash also made the most amazing BlackBerry jam and apple chutney. Local bakers who had learnt how to make goodies from the British, used to come around with trunks full of cinnamon bread, almond drops, peppernints and sticky toffee. Thanks for the post, memories are lovely.
Hi.. I loved landour. Can we connect so that i can learn more about this place
Wow.. Uttarakhand.. My nag tibba nd kanatal trip nd stays at goat village were memorable. After watching this it seems we need to go back asap.. What a wonderful way to narrate.. Loved it..
Wow you have been to Goat Village. That's one of the upcoming episodes 😀
@@THEUNTRAVELSHOW waiting for the video😍
Wow! Bete, I am really impressed with your way of narrating the facts and useful information in your crystal clear and melodious-masculine voice and your work with the Camera. I too am a big-big lover of Green Hills ( Not Bare Rusty Rocks).
Thank you so much Sir. That's such a sweet message. So glad you enjoyed it :)
Abhishek you really took us into Landour. The way you describe the beautiful city landed us actually into the landscape

Wowzeeeeee 😍
Mesmerizing incredible India BHARAT ❤❤❤
Your magical ✨✨ voice too😊
LANDAUR bazaar is in Mussoorie. It’s my hometown before... THE TOP CHAMPION 🇺🇸💪🏻🥇🏆🎬🎥🇮🇳
You are the only guy who can match harsha Bhogle's skills when it comes to story telling. Good work ✌️
Wow. That's one of its kind feedback 😍
Thanks a lot Prashant
Very good narrative, you make people want to go there.
Well, that means the main purpose of this episode is achieved :)
Cafe Ivy. OMG. I have white friend in Austin TX named Ivy. When I told her that a cafe in landour is named after her, She was happy and surprised and wished to there next summer if no Corona.
This is the first time I'm watching your video , happened to just stumble over , but didn't want the video to get over, it was a great ,informative video.U are indeed a good travel guide. I totally agree with you that monsoons is one season which can be really enjoyed. I had one such experience when we landed in kodai hills in july and I was feeling sad , the driver who was taking us around told me this that the Monsoon is also a season to be relished and after that I really enjoyed the stay in those hills
Continue the good work
Oh yes. Kodai is gorgeous in monsoons
Thanks for watching😊
Such a wonderful place...loved it...Dharamshala ki yaad aayi..🙇🙇
Meeting Tendulkar here was my favourite memory of this place.
Oh wow. You were so damn lucky :)
Great 👍
I happened to be there 2 years back. I could relive all my memories. Your voice makes picturesque Landor worth visiting to many.
That's really sweet of you Neeru. Glad you enjoyed 😊
Beautifully described Landour one of my favourite place…just can’t wait to be actually there
How beautifully you introduce to this amazing place. 😍
Thanks man 😊

Hi buddy,
Your narration in the Vlog is so suttle and calm in a uniform voice-totally matches with the serenity of the place,
an audio narrated with heart and connection
It feels like a pure genuine Vlog - not those wannabe type RUclips is full of these days
Great work💫
Glad you enjoyed it 😊
Your way of defining the Beauty of landour is like cherish the nuts on ice cream u defining so well with ur pure voice ❣️❣️💗💗

Wow, thanks!
Comments like yours really make our day 😊
Yes abhijit bjai i agree
Woww this is the best video and Landour my next destination😍
I am feeling fresh watching the video during the lockdown. Thank you Abhishek!
Imagine how you'll feel when you actually go to Landour :)
Such a beautiful place, so wholesome video❤
Your video was so refreshing and touchingly human, especially in this present phase of social media disconnect.
Very kind of you. Glad you enjoyed 😊
I am from Uttarakhand but your presentation made me feel as if it's a new destination for me👍
That really means a lot Manoj. Thank you so much :)
You caught the essence of Landour so well. Been there twice, simply love it. The cemetery is also quite amazing. But unfortunately young people come over sometimes in jeeps with loud music playing, such a shocker in such serene surroundings! Btw, which is that red roofed house you showed?
So refreshing 😍
Last year I went there with my friends and really such a beautiful place. I have never visited a place like Landour.. peace and silence and yes accommodation is expensive, but not that much 2000/day
Peace and serenity with all the material comforts :)
Lovely narration. Extremely informative.
Glad you liked it!
Wow ❤️ Listening to you and watching this beauty with a cup of chai at 3.00 AM is so peaceful! 😇 You picturised it so well!
Thank you so much 😀❤️
