Besides the Shri Ram temple and the Kailasha Memorial, there is the Ramgiri Hill, (mentioned as Ramgiri in Meghdootam) Ramsagar Lake and Khindsey Lake, made for enchanted seeing. The Kalidasa Smarak (memorial) is also worth a look. Accommodation is easy, where one can find self-contained rooms (5 Blocks) and Dormitories (1 Block- chiefly in Beds).
