Malari in the Dhauli Ganga valley of the Nanda Devi Biosphere reserve is a small village near the Tibet border. This area has been declared as a world heritage site. Located 61 km from Joshimath. On the way to Malari we saw the fabled Dronagiri parvat from where Hanuman is believed to have procured Sanjivani, a plant to save the life of Lakshmana. The villages in this valley include Reni, from where the Chipko movement of Garhwal was started; Gaura Devi, from where the famous chipko activist hailed, as well as Lata, Peng, Tolma, Surai, Phagti, Jamgavar, Kaga and Garpag. About 18 km from Malari, Niti is the last village in India, bordering Tibet. In times of yore, Niti Pass connected India and Tibet on the trade route. Now, special permission has to be taken from the administration to go beyond Malari. The population of Malari is 649 according to the 2001 census. Male population is 318 and female population is 331. ==References== * (Population of Malari ) * (Reports of National Panchayat directory ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Malari」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
