evidence: Giving a gift to the tourists, Uttarakhand government has settled on opening the Nelang Valley in Uttarakhand for Indian tourists. Located on the Indo-China border at a height of over 11,000 feet above the sea level, the valley was closed for civilians after the 1962 Sino-Indian border conflict. [...] An important point for cross-border traders pre-war, Nelang valley still has structures which are related to the old trade route. Gartang Galion, a wooden bridge and the Lal Devta temple are such points in the area which fall on the route for Tibet. Tourists can board safari jeeps for travelling to Nelong Valley from Bhairavghati which is 25 Km ride. Only the jeeps which are registered with forest department can be used for carrying the tourists. As the valley re-opens now, tourists can also get a chance to see Tibetan plateau.
