An Afternoon Visit to the Tibetan Buddhist Temple in Happy Valley, Mussoorie

Day 3 Highlights of Our Trip On Day 2 at around 7 p.m. we reached the hotel room in Mussoorie and had a peaceful stay in the hotel at night. Day 3 of our trip included our visit to Kempty Falls which was not my cup of tea. From here we visited the Company Garden where we spent time relaxing amidst nature in the beautiful ambiance. We had some food at the Food Court in the Garden and our 3 destination on Day 3 of the trip was the Tibetan Monastery / Buddhist Temple in Happy Valley. We drove on the ups and downs and twisty turny ghat roads for around 15 to 20 minutes and reached the place in the afternoon. Near the parking slot there is a Central School for the Tibetan children established in 1960 by the Govt of India. On walking up the rocky way we reached the entrance gate built in typical Tibetan architectural style. As we walked inside we reached a place to our left where there are big Tibetan Buddhist Prayer Wheels known as Mani Wheels by the Tibetans. When we reached this place...

Relaxing Amidst Nature at Company Garden in Mussoorie, Uttarakhand

Day 3 trip of our Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh tour started with our visit to Kempty Falls in Mussoorie . Our next tourist spot was Company Garden. On the way from Kempty Falls to Company Garden we could view the Kempty waterfalls from a long distance which I captured with my mobile cam. . On the way we saw some tourists at a view point who were busy capturing the captivating beauty of nature in their cams. We too halted at this place and took few shots of the spectacular view of mountains and valleys with buildings on the mountain slopes. Day 3 (25 April 2023) - Visit to Company Garden We then made our way to Company Garden which is around 45 minutes drive from Kempty Falls.

There was a kind of rustic beauty her...

Our Visit to Kempty Falls in Mussoorie, Uttarakhand

Well to begin with we had a cozy night sleep in the comforts of our hotel room at Mussoorie. Early in the morning we were awakened by the chirping of birds in the serene atmosphere. On opening the balcony door curtains, I was awed at the freshness of nature in the early hours. I lost myself for some time watching the beauty of nature. The place was too cool and serene with greenery all round. We refreshed ourselves, ordered for the same breakfast i.e., aloo parantha and bread and butter. We then started for our Day 3 trip which is local sight-seeing in Mussorie.

We went on short trip to few places in Uttarkhand and Himachal Pradesh in April 2023. On Day 1 of our trip we spent the evening at Har Ki Pauri in Haridwar but were a bit disappointed as we couldn't watch the evening Ganga aarti. We had our night stay at a hotel in Rishikesh. The next day i.e. on 24 April 2023 we visited Triveni Ghat and spent the day on sight-seeing in Rishikesh . After spending the day on sight-seeing at Rishikesh we continued our trip and had an Enchanting Road Trip to Mussoorie.

We were very much impressed on seeing the beautiful look of the hotel and peaceful ambiance of the place. We took the room in the upper tier as we can have a captivating valley view from the balcony. Though we had our woollen jackets we felt too cold as being from Hyderabad we are not used to such a cold weather in April. On entering into our room in the upper tier, we refres...
