If you wish to learn about Buddhist, make sure to visit the Library of Tibetan Works and Archives that houses manuscripts and artefacts dating back to the 12th century.

Given its hilly terrain, Dharamsala is famous for trekking like the Lake Glacier Trek and the Triund Trek.

With a view comparable to the Adelaide Oval or Newlands, the stadium is open for tourists even when no matches are scheduled. The main stand is built with Tibetan architectural style.

St John's Church: Located near Dharamshala and on the way to Mcleodganj, this neo-gothic church was built in dedication to John the Baptist. Set amidst lush deodar forests, this peaceful edifice is known for its Belgian stained-glass windows.

The two pools around the temple are believed to be sacred and are considered to contain miraculous powers of healing.

Dal Lake: The Dal Lake is a small yet picturesque lake. With its name taken from the famous and breathtaking Dal Lake of Srinagar, the lake is surrounded by rugged mountains and towering deodar trees. For adventure seekers, trekking expeditions around the lake are an option. Dal Lake is also a perfect place to stop over and relax if you are trekking up to Naddi, which is also known as the Sunset Point.

Dalai Lama Temple: Replete with Tibetan culture, the Dalai Lama Temple, also known as Tsuglakhang Temple, is a politico-religious centre in Dharamsala. Ideal for peaceful meditation and religious rumination, it is in close vicinity to the abode of Dalai Lama and is frequently visited by him to preach and conduct prayer meets. The main here is the enormous idol of Buddha sitting on an elevated pedestal.

Sunset Point: Naddi View Point or Sunset Point is the perfect location for catching a glimpse of the spectacular Dhauladhar ranges, especially during the winters when the peaks are covered in snow. Trek or drive to Naddi View Point in the evening to catch the sunset against the mountains, take photographs, and see the distant mountains through a telescope. 

Mcleodganj: Mcleodganj is a hill station near Dharamshala, popular among trekkers. Also known as Little Lhasa, it is famous around the world for being home to the Tibetan spiritual leader Dalai Lama. Few of the most eminent and religiously significant monasteries in India are located here, including the Namgyal Monastery and Tsuglagkhang, where the spiritual leader Dalai Lama resides.

Khajjiar is known for its picture perfect grassy meadows.There is a small lake in the middle of the meadow and you could enjoy the scenery by yourself or take part in some of the adventure sports including paragliding, zorbing, and horse-riding.

Indrunag and Bir Billing are two of the most popular spots for paragliding in Dharamshala.


Best time to visit Dharamsala

Thousands of backpackers travel to Dharamsala worldwide, but what’s the best time to visit Dharamsala? The second winter capital of India, Dharamsala, experiences four seasons annually. In summer, the lower Dharamsala experiences high temperatures, while the upper Dharamsala gets extremely cold in winter. Therefore, spring and fall are the most pleasant seasons to enjoy at Dharamsala.

Summers are perfect for outdoor sports like paragliding, trekking, mountaineering, and camping and for those searching for an escape from India’s summer heat waves. However, Dharamsala seeks major tourists in June. At the same time, newlyweds and adventure lovers find the weather of October through February ideal. In December and January, snowfall covers Dharamsala, and it looks no less than a fairyland.

Navratri, a nine days Hindu festival celebrated in March/April and October/November, are perfect weeks to visit Dharamsala if you desire to experience a spiritual vibe, seek the Goddesses’ blessings, and have a free meal. In addition, the 3-day International Himalayan Festival and Losan Festival are some of Dharamsala’s popular festivals worth attending at least once.

July through September are the months to avoid because of the heavy rainfall and chances of landslides in Dharamshala and nearby areas.


How to Reach Dharamsala

Dharamsala is well-connected to major Indian cities by road, train, and air. So you need not worry about transportation; pick the most suitable means according to your budget and comfort. 

Airways: Kangra Airport also called Gaggal Airport, around 15 km from Dharamsala, is the nearest domestic airport. From the airport, tourists can book a cab for half an hour's journey to Dharamsala. International visitors can book a flight to Indira Gandhi International Airport, Delhi, and book a cab or Volvo bus for an approximately 10 hours journey from Delhi to Dharamsala or even a domestic flight.

Railways: Pathankot Railway Station, Punjab, is 86 km from Dharamsala and the nearest railway station. Residents of Indian metro cities can reserve a train seat to Chandigarh, which is about 253 km away from Dharamsala. Either way, you must take a cab from the railway station.

Roadways: For those who love to jam on Spotify’s playlist in their cars, Dharamsala delivers a smooth road experience. Take NH 154 and NH 503 for this 10+ hours trip to Dharamsala. You may self-drive, book a cab, or reserve a Volvo bus to enjoy your journey via road.
