My friend Muhsin and I embarked on a bike journey to reach Loran, a charming hamlet nestled at the base of the Pir Panjal Hills. Situated 35 kilometers away from Poonch town in the picturesque region of Jammu & Kashmir, Loran captures the essence of natural beauty and tranquility.

The village is a canvas of colorful houses adorning the hillside, overlooking a meandering river that graces the landscape. This scenic composition lends an exquisite beauty to Loran, making it a sight to behold.

Yet, the true allure of Loran lies not only in its scenic splendor but also in the warmth of its people, who embody the spirit of the village itself. Much like Loran's idyllic setting, its residents have painted life with vibrant strokes of love and community, rendering it even more beautiful.
