McLeod Ganj 

Mcleodganj  ( Himachal Pradesh ( India )

This Beautiful small hill station is situated in Himachal Pradesh and you can reach this hill station by road from the nearest railway station Pathankot. Pathan kot is a overnight train journey from The capital of india New Delhi.

I was very much excited as my school planned 4 days vacation trip to this beautiful hill station , This hill station is different as Our guests from Tibet and their Holy Leader Dalai Lama also reside here and i was very much desperate to meet them.

We started our journey from New Delhi Railway Station , we were around 100 school mates along with my fast  friends Arushit and Karan , Due to some reasons My Friend Joy could not go, to whom i really missed.

The whole night in the train we did not sleep and the night was full of songs , jokes and great sharing.Morning  when we reached Pathankot Railway station Our Bus was ready for Mcleodganj and it took around 6 hrs, to reach at Mcleodganj. this was very exciting journey and we were thrilled to see deep valleys and peaks of mountains.

Mcleodganj is a beautiful place full of natural beauty and you feel as if you are in Tibet because the culture , the majority population , the temples and their holy head Dalai lama’s resides there only,

The restaurants menu  full of Tibetan dishes and this was something new taste fot us.

The beautiful calm hill station situated at around 2000 meter above the sea level is full of lush greenery surrounded all over from snow covered mountains , and it looked like paradise , no pollution like our cities.

The places we visited .

Chinmay Tapovan , silent and beautiful

Bhikshuk Temple , full of devotees , all peace and calm ,  every body praying Lord Buddha ,
