Bhowali is a very beautiful place in the district of nainital but with the natural beauty of it there we can see many monkeys and apes everywhere. The people have to be very careful because the monkeys would destroy the things in the kitchen. But, now due to the cutting of trees on a massive scale, the climate is quite hot as compared to previous year.
