  7. भाई मैं रायगढ़ (छत्तीसगढ) से हुं नूरपुर से 4 किमी की दूरी पर एक छोटा सा शहर जसूर है ।जहां मैं 2013 मैं गया था। और आठ महीने रुका था। हिमाचल बहुत ही सुंदर जगह हैं ।
    और नूरपुर का श्री कृष्ण जन्माष्टमी महोत्सव बहुत अच्छा लगता हैं। आज आपका ये वीडियो देखकर वो यादें ताजा हो गई। बहुत जल्द फिर से हिमाचल घूमने जरूर आऊंगा l 🙏🙏🙏
