If one truly wants to travel and explore the most beautiful and unique places in India, one surely should not miss out on Dharamshala, a small hill station in Kangra District of Himachal Pradesh. The magnificence of the Dhauladhar ranges, the beautiful Kangra valley, the dense forests of the tall conifer and oak trees, makes Dharamshala one of the most peaceful and picturesque destination in India.
The climate here is cool and pollution free and hence the perfect getaway for major city-dwellers looking for some peace and quiet in the midst of nature. Dharamshala got its international fame when it became the temporary shelter for the Dalai Lama and therefore is famously called €The Little Lhasa in India€. People flock here from all around the world in search of inner peace and to regain their lost health. The power and enigma of meditation, yoga, prayer and natural healing can be experienced here. The hotels of Dharamshala are in sync with its beauty and true essence; they are simple yet elegant and makes one feel at home.
The star attractions are the KunalPathri temple, the vast tea gardens, the Kangra Art Museum, Masrur temples, Bhagsu Waterfalls, Dal Lake, Triund and Naddi among many more. The big, ancient temples of Dharamshala are not just artistic but speak volumes of its rich past and cultural heritage. They offer tranquillity and right perspective to lost souls. There is a lot to explore for art and history lovers, namely the War Museum and the Naam Art Gallery. For people who thrive on trekking, this is truly heaven. There are many snow-capped mountains and hills, Triund being the most famous for trekking. The adrenaline rush and the thrills of trekking can be truly experienced and enjoyed here. The Kotwali Bazar has famous markets for artefacts and handicrafts as well as some historically significant landmarks including the McLeod and Forsythe Ganj. You can enjoy one day's picnic at the famous Naddi picnic spot with its breath-taking natural beauty and the spectacular view of the valley. Just imagine a calm and serene boat ride with your partner at the Dal Lake or just sitting in complete silence at the Kali temple near the Lake; the feeling just cannot be expressed in words. There is a beautiful Cricket stadium too built in the valley facing the lofty mountains.
The people of Dharamshala lead a very calm and simple life and are very proud of their city. One just gets the real impression of their warmth and generosity at the hotels of Dharamshala. This hill station is well connected to rail, road and air transportation, and if you want a journey, an experience of a lifetime, you must book your tickets at the earliest!
