00:00Welcome to PTC News. We are in Kumbhri right now and we are taking you to Snow Kingdom.
00:06Usually, anything is killed for snow, but here it snowed in 12 months.
00:12And see, we are going inside.
00:15This is the kingdom of snow.
00:18And here you can enjoy the snow.
00:22This Snow Kingdom has been made artificially.
00:25We will show you more pictures.

02:40What is your name?
02:42My name is Pratik Thakur. I am a resident of Kumbhri.
02:45We run an amusement park called Snow Kingdom in the name of Kumbhri.
02:51What kind of work do you do? What kind of tourists do you have?
02:56We made an amusement park in 2013 called Adventure Resort.
03:01This is the biggest amusement park in Himachal Pradesh.
03:04We did a new addition in June last year.
03:08Seeing that the heat is increasing all over the world and Kumbhri was a known place for snow.
03:16Now snow is also decreasing here.
03:18We started a new venture in June called Snow Kingdom Kumbhri.
03:22We have an area of 15,000 sq. ft. in which there is snow.
03:29There is an indoor snow dome.
03:31There are snow rides and other installations to take pictures.
03:35We have depicted the environment of a village during the snow season in the park.
03:41Is there anyone in Himachal Pradesh like you have made in Kumbhri?
03:48Where did you get this idea from?
03:52When we came to the amusement industry, there was no amusement park in Himachal Pradesh at that time.
03:56Now there are a few more parks open.
03:58But still this is our biggest and most advanced park.
04:01I think there is one more Snow Kingdom park.
04:05But it is not in North India at such a high level.
04:08This is the biggest snow park in North India.
04:13We can handle 300-400 people in an hour.
04:17Our target is to reach 1,000-1,500 people on a daily basis.
04:24How is the flow of tourists in Shimla?
04:27It is said that the number of tourists has decreased after Covid.
04:34The effect of tourism in Shimla has been reduced after Covid.
04:41We are trying to reach the level of Shimla and Kumbhri.
04:48Overall, Shimla has a good response in Kashmir.
04:52And there is a good response in Uttarakhand and Mussoorie.
04:56The downtrend has started after Covid.
05:00But our expectation is that the flow of tourists will increase as soon as the four-lane road is over.
05:07We are bringing new experiences and new items to Kumbhri.
05:11We expect to recover and improve with time.
