Jug Mug Thela
The first time I heard of Champa Gali, the few words that my friend uttered were Jug Mug Thela. I was a little perplexed at this point but once I reached the place, I realized it wasn’t really a thela after all. Not only is it a great place to chill and relax with friends, it is also a beautiful spot for romantic times. This place is so famous that after a point, it became synonymous with Champa Gali itself.
