Dharamsala

Set against the backdrop of the dramatic Dhauladhar mountains, Dharamsala is perched on the high slopes in the upper reaches of Kangra Valley.

Dharamsala has become the synonymous to the Tibetan government in exile and the home of Tibetan leader Dalai Lama.

Even though the Tibetan community dominates the town, still it has retained the colonial lifestyle and British fervor.

Dharamsala over looks the plains and is surrounded by dense pine trees and Deodar forests.

Dharamsala is a busy bazaar town and has established itself as the travelers base camp, who come to explore the nearby mountains.

The Kotwali Bazaar provides the entire colour and characteristic of a small town, which is mixed with the simple life style.

The colorful temple and Gompas, which reflect the culture of Tibet, adds attraction for the visitor.
