The Atal Rohtang tunnel which took more than a decade to be built is finally ready. Named after the former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, this happens to be the longest high-altitude road tunnel.
Falling under the Rohtang Pass, here a few pictures of the newly built tunnel on the Manali-Leh Highway.
