Gushaini is a quaint little Himalayan village in the Kullu district. Its close proximity to the Great Himalayan National Park attracts quite a few nature lovers every year. What Gushaini offers is some wonderful Guest Houses and camps for that &#8230; <a class="more-link" href="http://www.travelnart.com/2011/07/himalayan-retreat-rajus-guest-house/"></br><i>Read More >></i></a>]]></description>
