Go up to Manali in Himachal Pradesh, for some snow topped mountains. Lots to do in and around Manali, one of which is visiting the home, and now museum of Nicholas Roerich in the neighboring village of Naggar.
In Old Manali village you can also visit with Varia, the Russian girl that owns the restaurant Peoples.
