I visited Kalatop Wildlife Sanctuary, and honestly, it wasn’t what I expected. The 3 km uphill drive/walk was scenic, with a peaceful forest vibe, but I barely saw any wildlife along the way. The entry fee was ₹50 for bikes, which seemed reasonable, but there wasn’t much to explore once inside. If you’re looking for fun activities or major attractions, this might not be the place for you. The area felt completely deserted—I didn’t come across anyone else during the entire stretch, which made it a bit eerie. While the natural setting is nice for a quiet walk, I wouldn’t recommend it for those expecting an exciting experience.

It’s about a 6 km round-trip walk from the starting point. You can pay at the gate and bring your own vehicle into the sanctuary; it costs 50 INR for a two-wheeler. However, I would recommend walking through it. It’s scenic, quiet, and beautiful, with tall trees on both sides, green fields, and plenty of photogenic spots.

Kalatop Wildlife Sanctuary – A Quick Take Just 6 km from Dalhousie, Kalatop is a peaceful, pine-scented escape perfect for nature walks and light treks. The sanctuary is home to deodar forests, Himalayan black bears, barking deer, and rare birds—though actual wildlife sightings can be rare. Scenic, clean, and quiet, it’s ideal for a half-day getaway. Don’t expect safari thrills—this is more about serenity than spectacle. Entry fee applies; roads can be bumpy but manageable.

Kalatop Wildlife Sanctuary was quite disappointing. The narrow road leading up is in poor condition, and driving there is challenging since personal vehicles are allowed. This often causes traffic jams on the steep and tight roads, making the journey stressful rather than enjoyable. The entry fee of ₹200 with personal vehicle doesn’t feel justified, as there’s very little to see inside. I didn’t spot any animals during the visit. There’s just a small forest rest house from 1925 and a few spots to sit. The only highlight is the lovely hill view, where you can enjoy pakoras and tea at a rooftop viewpoint cafe. Overall, you can easily skip this spot unless you just want a quiet place for mountain views. It doesn’t offer much for the entry fee or the effort to reach there.

It is just beautiful place. To reach you have to drive a dangerous road but it is adventures. In June it is a cold and clean place. There is no wild animal. No zoo

Kalatop wildlife sanctuary located almost 4km from Lakadmandi and almost 12km from city centre !! There was not good route to reach their in rainy season whole road was filled with mud !! And u can reach their by own vehicle , rented taxi or cab !! U can reach there by walk as well but u need to walk almost 1 hour !! Its peaceful place !! No ticket required for entry or neither for parking !! Plenty of cafes are there !! Overall good experience!! And last thing there was not a single animal there !! Its just gemic to catch attention of tourists

Kalatop Wildlife Sanctuary is situated near Dalhousie. You need to take local union cars to visit there. Small car fair 1200 and 1600 for suv. At the hill top there is a Forest Rest House which was made by British in 1925. Beside that a green lawn surrounded by huge pine forests. Also there are few small resturents run by locals and a small adventure perk. While visiting Dalhousie one can easily skip this place, as the place is not worthy so musc except the road. But in winter when this place is totally covered with snow then the place worth visiting more.

Khajjiar Lake is situated in the middle of Khajjiar Valley. This is a small lake with lots of fishes. When we visited the lake most of the lake was covered with water grass. I think this lake need more maintenance.

Nice place. Much commercialized, but the beauty is superb, in the winters, when I got to see the frozen lake, making the place all white. I could only imagine, how much beautiful, it would be, if the place is remote with very less people. That would be gem in the middle of the forest. But the place is very much in demand, with lot of people visiting here & lot of business, activities, selling of products, etc going on. Resulting in lot of vehicles, traffic, mud, jams, horns, which takes away some of the serenity & beauty of the place. But, even then, a frozen lake is beautiful, which you mesmerize most. The place is, though quite clean, even after so much of human activities going on. Worth a visit. Share your like, if the review is appreciated, for it would mean that it is helping others out there exploring.

Khajjiar Lake is a beautiful place with green forest all around. Best place to spend some peaceful time with friends and family.

Visiting Khajjiar Lake in Himachal Pradesh was an enchanting experience that left me awe-inspired by nature's beauty. The moment I reached this picturesque location, I was greeted by the breathtaking landscape of lush green meadows, surrounded by towering deodar trees. I took a peaceful stroll around the lake, absorbing the tranquility and enjoying the cool breeze that gently caressed my face. ->For adventure seekers, there were options for horse riding and zorbing, which added an extra dose of excitement to the visit. -> Highly recommended for those seeking solace amidst nature's wonders! 🏔️🚶‍♂️📸

I visited Khajjiar shortly after the monsoon (one of the best seasons to visit). It is a sprawling green meadow with a marsh lake in the middle and surrounded all around by deodar trees. There is a cottage run by Himachal tourism situated right in the meadow (the iconic photo that you see when you search Khajjiar in Google), where you can book your stay through the Himachal tourism website. It was lush green and the weather was pleasant in September. The good thing about Khajjiar is that it's not overcrowded (yet). There is so much fresh air and tranquility. You can take a good walk around the perimeter and then sit on a bench and enjoy the view how much ever you want. This place is a great escapade from the noise and crowd of the city.

Khajjiar which is also known as Mini Switzerland truly lives up to its name. This majestic place is a must visit place in your lifetime. There are hardly any places like this in india other than Kashmir Doodh Pathri. I visited this place multiple times but every time this place feels special. Visited this place 9 months back too.

This is a small hamlet valley in the midst of mountain forests and high peaks. Its beautiful when cloudy and even prettier when sunny! Too many tourists, but it still holds on to its beauty. Happy to see, tourists have littered less here.

Amazing place to visit for everyone. Very easy trek, harldy 1/2 hr to reach on top. You can spend as much time as you want, you will be in between the clouds at top. There is Temple on top and various shops for snacks. Toilet facilities available. Near temple. We visited in month of September end it was very less crowded and peaceful. Parking available at road side.

Dainkund Peak is an absolute must-visit in Dalhousie! The hike to the Pohlani Devi Temple is beautiful and very enjoyable, with a well-defined, easy-to-follow path, so there’s absolutely no need for a guide. The trail is clean, scenic, and perfect for anyone looking to enjoy nature at a relaxed pace. Once you reach the top, you’re rewarded with stunning 360° panoramic views of the mountains and valleys around — truly breathtaking and worth every step of the hike. The cool breeze, peaceful surroundings, and wide open vistas make it a memorable experience. Highly recommended for nature lovers, casual hikers, and anyone visiting Dalhousie!

Trekking at Dainkund Peak was an unforgettable experience, offering a perfect blend of serenity and natural beauty. As I ascended the trail, a peaceful silence enveloped the surroundings, broken only by the soft rustling of leaves and the distant calls of birds. The path meandered through lush green meadows and dense forest patches, gradually leading me above the clouds. Walking amidst the mist and cool mountain breeze felt surreal—as if nature itself had paused in quiet admiration. From the summit, the panoramic view of the surrounding was breath taking. It was a soul-refreshing journey, where every step brought a deeper connection to nature.

Amazing trek with beautiful panaromic.views.It is highest point of Dalhousie.I would say more scenic and beautiful than Khajiaar.It takes hardly half an hour to reach top from base. Complete the trek to reach Pohani Mata temple. Please seek advice from locals in case of inclement weather

Trek is easy. First 600 meters of the treck is inclined after that it's easy and the path is straight. Pohlani mata temple is at the peak and you can view manimahesh kailash if there is no fog. And the view is so amazing literally so beautiful. If you're visiting Dalhousie you must go here.

One of the Best Place to visit Daikund Trek if you are planning to go to Dalhousie. It’s a 1.5 km trek. The gates will be closed on 4:00pm. Try to reach early. Must carry your water bottles, you will definitely need it. At the top there is a popular Pholani Devi Temple. View from the top is mesmerising. You will definitely love and enjoy it.

Marvellous place. Do the trek, climb the peaks. View from top of the mountain is breath taking. Approximately 30-35 mins of trek from airforce barrier.

This place has my heart truly. This a place where you feel like that you are in heaven and touching the clouds. My words are not enough to explain what i have experienced. The beauty of this place has a lot more stories to tell. Truly I have had the best experience of my life.

Triund Trek offers breathtaking mountain and valley views. The trail is about 9 km one way—steep in parts but doable for beginners. Best to start early and carry water. Camping at the top is peaceful.. Gets crowded on weekends, but the sunrise makes it all worth it!

High altitude. Good trek. Nice experience. Must visit once. Visit with moderate budget. Awesome sceneries.

"Triund, tu hai kya view! 🌌 Reached the top in the evening, camped under the stars, and witnessed an UNBELIEVABLE night sky 🔭✨. Next morning, caught the sunrise and OMG, it was pure magic! 🌅❤️ Best decision ever to trek to Triund! 😍"

Best trek for beginners, one thing that every tourist has to know there is a base camp after 5 hours of trek after that the peak of triund it takes max 1 hours to reach, many travel agencies don't take you there so first ask after that book any travel agency otherwise trek solo and at the peak of triund trek you got tent and food. In 700-1000 per person(tent + food).

One of the Best trek I've done. It's a beginner friendly and enjoyable trek, One can complete the trek easily as the paths are marked from the start till the end, But it's highly recommended to book a trek guide if you're a beginner as it requires stamina and support for a walk of around 3-4 hours with enjoying views. One of the best company that offer this trek at the lowest price is Madtrek Adventures my experience with them was great 😃. And If you can't handle cold weather then pack your winter wears to keep you warm in December till March as these months experiences snowfall at Triund Top. One more Important Thing: Enjoy the trek with the beautiful views but keep in mind that don't litter trash in such a beautiful place also don't let other litter too.

Weather prediction mentioned some rain, when we started. We couldn't see anything but fog while going uphill. Even on the hill top, couldn't see any of the ranges. A few gusts of wind gave us a sneak peek of one of the peaks and we decided to stay around in case the weather would clear up again. Rain began in afternoon. It rained and hailed. Temperature above definitely reached single digits. Shopkeeper on the top of the hill said it will clear up in 10-20 mins. Hours later, it didn't. There were around 10-15 people huddled in the only shop above the hill. Along with a few dogs as well. We waited for rain to stop but it didn't. So when there was a pause at around 4pm, we could finally see the Dhauladhar range. Snapped a few pictures and we booked it downhill. Passes along other drenched hikers coming up. The rain came back. It was really not a great experience being already tired and cold, walking down rocks and mud with drenched boots, and umbrella in one hand. We reached the bottom just after sunset, as it was getting really dark. Thankfully there were cabs to take us back to town. Paraphrasing a local shopkeeper I talked to at the bottom: This kind of rain happens once every 15-20 years. Will I do this again? Sure. Not anytime soon tho. And certainly will take the weather more seriously this time.

Not a natural lake. Don't confuse yourself with Dal Lake that is in Kashmir and as it's not the original one it's also not very attractive. Too much to be honest, it smells awful as the source of water of this lake is a treatment plant. I visited in April and it was almost dry with no crowd at all. No need to go inside, you should click picture from outside and look for another destination.

I was quite disappointed with Dal Lake in McLeodganj. The river was completely dirty and mostly dried up, which made the area look neglected and uninviting. It felt almost like a banned, isolated spot, with dust and litter all around. Unfortunately, it was far from the serene and picturesque experience I had expected.

Beautiful site, and ancient shiva temple, onroute to Naddi view point. Thanks Regards, Spiritual Staycation Ghera Road, Matti village, Dharamshala 176217

Mid June 2025, absolutely dry. The devdar trees in the background look good. Guess global warming is causing water scarcity everywhere

Pathetic place. Please waste time going here. There is no lake only muddy waters not worth it.

Worst experience, waisted my Rs.500 for cab. Lake was dry no crowd. Cab driver told us after we reached that the lake was under construction!

This lake is under construction, i m here today date is 13.6.25 only come here minimum after 1 year

The waterfall was nice but for me the best part was the walk there. I walked a different way to most people, I came from upper Bhagsu and it took me through this beautiful trail on the edge of the mountain. Took me only 15 mins to get there. Also went to Shiva cafe which is 5 minutes higher than the waterfall, nice views up there and good food.

Bhagsu Nag Waterfall is a great place 100% a must-visit. It’s a short and easy trek. Try having Maggi during the trek; the views and the sound of the waterfall give you pure peace and a lovely vibe. Just feel it.

Nice up hill trekk for nearly 45 mins for me (out of breath due to physical reason). Once reached the place it was a lovely experience. See the water fall, clean water, small cafes. Enjoy tge place for 30 mins or more. Then start retracting.

Bhagsunag Waterfalls is a beautiful and refreshing spot located about a 15–20 minute walk from Bhagsunag Temple. The trek to the waterfall is simple and scenic, suitable for beginners and families. The surroundings are lush and calming, making it a great place to relax, take pictures, and enjoy the sound of flowing water. With the nearby cafés and viewpoints, you can easily spend 4–5 hours enjoying the area. A perfect short trek and a must-visit attraction in McLeodganj for nature lovers.

Very crowded place. A lot of public taking bath in the waterfall. Its not a peaceful place to visit. Although the sight is good from far away. A lot of shops to shop from. Local bags, key chains, clothes, shawls, jewellery.

While the waterfall itself isn’t particularly scenic, the pathway leading to it is beautiful. However, the trek may not be suitable for elderly visitors.

The Bhagsunath Waterfall trek is a bit challenging, but totally worth it! The cold water rushing through your body in winter is an unforgettable experience. A must-visit spot for nature lovers seeking adventure and beauty. Highly recommend!

Visited Bhagsunag Temple and it was a truly peaceful and divine experience. The natural spring flowing through the premises adds a refreshing touch, and the surrounding mountains make the atmosphere even more serene. The temple is well-maintained, and the energy of the place instantly calms the mind. Don't miss the nearby waterfall and sacred pool perfect spots to relax and soak in nature's beauty. A must-visit for anyone coming to McLeodganj!

An extremely peaceful and divine location nestled in the serene hills of McLeodganj. The temple’s calm surroundings and spiritual energy make it a truly soothing place for the mind and soul. Early morning is the best time to visit, when the atmosphere is tranquil, and the divine aura can be felt at its purest.

Bhagsunath Temple, himachal pradesh Temple, Shiva, How ...The history of Bhagsunath Temple involves a legend about a king and a snake god, with the current structure dating to the early 19th century. According to legend, King Bhagsu built the temple to seek forgiveness from the Snake God after stealing water from the sacred Nag Dal Lake, leading to a fierce battle. The temple complex includes the main temple, a pool, and is near the Bhagsunag Waterfall. Legend: The local legend states that the temple was built by a king named Bhagsu to atone for angering the Snake God after he stole water from the Nag Dal Lake. Temple construction: The original temple is believed to be very old, but the current structure was built in the early 19th century by the 1st Gurkha Rifles. Deities: The temple is dedicated to both Lord Shiva and the local deity Bhagsu Nag, the snake god. Complex: The complex is located near McLeod Ganj and includes a main temple, a series of pools where visitors and monks bathe, and is situated on the path to the Bhagsunag Waterfall.

Amazing place to spend some alone time, and has an open swimming pool too, one can swim in the natural water directly flowing from the mountains.

The view from the temple is breathtaking. It's a small local temple. There is a pool,where devotees can take a bath. Small and quiet place to spend some time. There is a seperate place/shelf to keep one shoe.

It’s an amazing place to visit near trikund trekking point oldest historical Shiv temple this Linga created by itself om Namah shivayanamaha

A bit of a trek to reach the top of the fall, but certainly beautiful. The water is clear & provides a lovely view of the hills

As a traveler, visiting the Dalai Lama Temple in McLeodganj, Dharamshala was a wonderful experience. The temple has a serene atmosphere, deeply connected with Tibetan culture and spirituality. The peaceful vibes, prayer wheels, and monks chanting create a very calming environment. It’s not just a religious site but also a cultural experience that leaves you feeling positive and refreshed. Highly recommended for anyone exploring Dharamshala.

Always a delight visit the holiness place. This time I also attended his lifelong ceremony with a bunch of tibetans and renowned scholars who happened to visit this ceremony and seek his blessings from all over the world. Such a delight to witness him and this ceremony in person and feel a surge of true spiritual energy, even with more than 1000 people around. I guess it's the holiness in Dharamshala effect.

Peaceful and calming place. Loved the temple inside, prayer wheels, monks chanting, and beautiful mountain views. Great spot to experience Tibetan culture and soak in the serene vibe. Must-visit when in McLeod Ganj! No entrance fees, you can buy souvenirs from the market right outside the temple.

The Dalai Lama Temple in McLeodganj is a peaceful and spiritually uplifting place that everyone should visit when in Dharamshala. The atmosphere is incredibly calm, with monks chanting, prayer wheels lining the walkways, and the soothing sounds of Tibetan rituals creating a deep sense of serenity. The temple premises are also home to His Holiness the Dalai Lama, which makes the place even more special and meaningful. Simply being in this sacred space gives a sense of peace and humility. The complex is clean, well-maintained, and very accessible, located just a short walk from the main market. Visitors can sit quietly inside, observe the prayers, or walk the meditation circuit with spinning prayer wheels. The surrounding mountain views further enhance the experience, blending nature with spirituality beautifully. Overall, a must-visit spot in McLeodganj — perfect for reflection, calmness, and experiencing Tibetan culture up close.

A peaceful and spiritually uplifting place. I visited the Dalai Lama Temple in McLeod Ganj and was fortunate to be there while prayers were going on. The atmosphere was calm and serene, filled with the soothing sound of chants and the gentle spinning of prayer wheels. It truly felt like a place of deep reflection and tranquility. The temple is simple yet beautiful, surrounded by scenic views of the mountains. A must-visit if you're in Dharamshala and looking to experience peace and spirituality.

Our family visited this Budhist Dalai Lama temple (also known as Theckchen Choeling Buddha Vihar) on 24 October 2025. There is no entry fees. There is a residential venue of Dalai Lama, in front of the temple complex. It has a Beautiful, calm, quiet, serene, religious atmosphere with excellent infrastructure for religious ceremony and meditation.

It is very beautiful temple of His Highness The 14 th Dalai Lama. He stays in the temple area and gives sermons to his disciples whenever he is in Mcleodgang. There is adequate security in the area and common people can see the temple with ease and comfort. You get spiritual experience whenever you visit this temple. There are statues of Tibetan Saints in the complex and one experiences utmost peace and tranquility in the temple. You can see The 14th Dalai Lama in the temple whenever he is in Mcleodganj and gives sermons. One must visit the temple whenever one visits Dharamshala.

The Dharamshala Cricket Stadium is truly one of the most breathtaking places I have ever visited! Nestled in the lap of the mighty Dhauladhar mountain range, it offers a view so spectacular that it feels like nature and sport have come together in perfect harmony. Watching a match here — or even just standing in the stands — is an unforgettable experience. The stadium is impeccably maintained, clean, and organized. The vibrant green outfield set against the snow-capped Himalayan peaks creates a surreal atmosphere, unlike any other cricket ground in the world. It’s not just a venue for cricket; it’s a destination for peace, beauty, and inspiration. The facilities are excellent — from comfortable seating to proper security and amenities for visitors. Even when there isn’t a match happening, the staff is kind enough to let you explore and take in the view. The management and local authorities have done a fantastic job preserving both the sporting spirit and the natural serenity of the place. Whether you’re a cricket lover or simply a traveler seeking something unique, the Dharamshala Stadium is a must-visit. It’s more than just the world’s highest international cricket stadium — it’s a slice of paradise where every photo looks like a postcard. Absolutely deserving of 5 stars for its beauty, ambiance, and the pride it brings to Indian cricket! 🌄🏏🇮🇳

Amazing stadium with a very good view of the mountains around this place.

Trust me buddies you will love the view of this place and it is worth visiting this beautiful stadium here. I went here along with my friends and we had lot of fun here.

Beautiful Stadium But Beware of Scam Activity Outside The HPCA Cricket Stadium in Dharamshala is easily one of the most beautiful cricket grounds in the world, surrounded by the majestic Dhauladhar mountain range. The views are absolutely breathtaking snow clad peaks, fresh mountain air, and a perfectly maintained field. Even on non-match days, the entry fee (₹30 via UPI) is totally worth it for the serenity and scenic beauty. The stands are colorful, the stadium is clean, and staff are generally polite and cooperative. However, visitors should stay alert outside the main gate. There are people pretending to represent resort or travel companies (often with names like Karma Group) with ID probably fake ID cards handing out scratch cards for tgeir 31st anniversary claiming “free prizes” or “holiday vouchers.” This is a misleading sales scam they invite you to a “presentation” that turns into a high-pressure attempt to sell costly vacation memberships. Many visitors have reported that these offers are fake, and the promised gifts are never delivered or come with hidden charges. Tourists often end up losing time and face unnecessary stress. It’s important that visitors do not share personal details or sign any forms from these individuals. Politely decline and walk away. Tourists have repeatedly faced such incidents near the stadium entrance. The HPCA authorities and local police should look into this matter to maintain the safe, welcoming environment that this world class venue deserves. This place is a jewel of Himachal let’s keep it safe and scam free for everyone to enjoy! 🏟️🏔️

Excellent place to watch if around Dharamshala must visit. Background snow clad Dhauladhar Ranges offer majestic beauty to stadium.

The most beautiful stadium in the world with beautiful snow Mountains in the background...... The greenary of the grass and the red color of the stadium combination looks beautifully to the stadium....... The charge of the entry fee is 30/- for the visitors....... Good work by Himachal Pradesh Govt for constructing this beautiful stadium.....

The Dharamshala Cricket Stadium, also known as the HPCA Stadium, is one of the most scenic cricket stadiums in the world — and it truly lives up to that title. Nestled in the lap of the mighty Dhauladhar mountains, this stadium offers a breathtaking backdrop of snow-capped peaks that makes watching a cricket match here a magical experience. 🚨What I Loved❤️🫶 :- ✅ Stunning Mountain Views: The Himalayas in the background are mesmerizing, especially during sunset🌞 ✅ Clean & Well-Maintained: The stadium is very clean, with good seating arrangements and security. ✅ Pleasant Weather: The cool mountain breeze adds to the enjoyment, especially in the summer months. ✅ Good Facilities: The arrangements for food, restrooms, and parking are well managed. ✅ Peaceful Environment: Even outside match days, you can visit the stadium and enjoy its peaceful surroundings. 🚨Things to Note✍️:- 1 )- Tickets sell out quickly during major matches, so book early. Now this time means date 18 june Ticket price is only rupees 30rs. per person. 2 )-Carry light jackets even in summer — it can get unexpectedly chilly. Whether you are a cricket fan or a nature lover, the Dharamshala Cricket Stadium is a must-visit. It’s not just a place to watch sports — it’s a place to soak in nature and feel truly alive . ❤️🤩 I love this location for seeing the match 🫶 ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ❤️

Brilliant place! Incredibly interesting learning about Tibetan culture and seeing them work in real life. The Buddhist statues, artefacts etc are all well put together. The place is well laid out with easy to follow map and info leaflets at the front. The gardens are also very well maintained and beautiful. It has a nice shop for souvenirs also It says free guide but we unfortunately came when they were on lunch… ticket is 200 rupees as foreigner Highly recommend!

Norbulingka Institute – Living Tibetan Heritage One of the must-visit places near Dharamsala is the Norbulingka Institute, a centre dedicated to keeping Tibetan culture alive in exile. What struck me most was the care and patience of the artisans. Here, traditional skills are still practiced every day — from thangka painting, to the making of copper images, to the crafting of wooden boxes and furniture. Each piece reflects not only artistry, but also devotion, because these crafts are part of Tibetan spiritual life. Walking through the workshops, you see how much effort is poured into preserving this heritage. It’s not simply about producing objects — it’s about ensuring that future generations can still experience the beauty and meaning of these traditions. The grounds are beautiful too, with peaceful gardens and courtyards, and the Deden Tsuglagkhang temple at the centre — a place that feels both artistic and spiritual. There is also a shop, where you can bring home a thangka, statue, or hand-crafted item — often things hard to find outside India. Supporting these artisans helps the tradition continue. And if you linger longer, the restaurant in the garden is a lovely place for lunch. Norbulingka is a little way from Dharamsala town, so it works best as part of a day trip with other sights. But it is well worth the effort. More than a tourist stop, it is a living bridge between the Tibet that was, and the Tibet that continues to survive and flourish in exile.

Norbulingka Institute in Dharamshala is one of those places that makes traveling feel purposeful. It’s a beautiful blend of art, culture, and serenity, where every workshop and craft studio feels like a live classroom. You actually get to learn how Tibetan traditions are preserved, practiced, and passed on — and the artisans are insanely skilled. The campus is lush, peaceful, and perfect for slowing down while soaking in real knowledge. If you’re someone who travels for culture, creativity, and new perspectives, this place is an absolute must.

Norbulingka Institute is a peaceful escape where Tibetan art and culture come alive. The lush gardens, flowing water channels, and beautifully crafted temple create a calming atmosphere. Watching artisans work on thangka paintings and wood carvings was a unique experience. The Losel Doll Museum is small but charming. The café and shop are slightly pricey, but the quality justifies it. Overall, a must visit for anyone looking to explore Tibetan heritage in a serene setting.

we visited way back in july 2019. lovely monastery and the institute. lot of interesting items to see. one can sit and meditate in the silent monastery. limited parking place was available then.

This institute is located near Dharamshala is an epitome of rich Tibetan cultural heritage. Surrounded by lush green landscapes, this institute houses a temple, museum and galleries to depict Tibetan art and sculpture. One can truly get mesmerized by the Tibetan History and how the Tibetan culture thrived in India with Dharamshala as its headquater.

Must visit in Dharamshala It's peaceful, and feels like heaven. Learn about Tibetan culture and heritage. You can spend 2-3 hours easily, must try tumpka from the cafe

Peaceful pilgrim place where people come from various parts of India to wish and pray for their goodwill. However the Sarovar is in bad shape and needs a lot of cleaning.

Pandori Dham is not just a spiritual destination—it’s an experience that touches your soul. The peaceful aura, divine energy, and unwavering devotion felt here are beyond words. Every corner tells a story—from the serene sarovar to the murals that bring the Ramayana alive. I felt deeply connected, grounded, and spiritually recharged. The langar, the darshan, and the presence of the 1108 Acharya Raghubir Das ji all come together to create a sense of belonging. It’s a place where time slows down, and the heart feels full. If you’re seeking inner peace and divine blessings, Pandori Dham is a must-visit.

Pandori Dham is a serene and picturesque destination. The main gate and spacious parking area make it convenient for visitors. The temple's interior is meticulously maintained, exuding tranquility. The temple complex features various sacred spots for worship and reflection. We visited with our family and felt a deep sense of peace. There's also a cave, now closed, which was once used as a passage. It's said to stretch far, even connecting to Haridwar. Outside the temple lies a serene pond with a Shiva idol. We strolled around, enjoyed the park, and spotted peacocks nearby. During rainfall, the place becomes even more enchanting. *Tips for visiting:* 1. Ideal for family outings. 2. Offers spiritual solace and peace. 3. Natural beauty and peacock spotting. Pandori Dham is a haven for spiritual rejuvenation and relaxation.

Very Good Place. But go in the morning. We went in evening and there was no crowd. No people.

Pandori Dham's history dates back approximately 500 years, founded by the Ramanandi saint Shri Bhagwanji and his disciple Shri Narainji. It is a significant Vaishnava establishment and part of a sacred network of 52 Vaishnav Dwaras. The temple serves as a spiritual center and retreat, known for its peaceful atmosphere and the Baisakhi fair.

My parents say they are hooked to this place from Generations. So we have got to know this place from family only and we tend to visit twice or thrice a year. Whenever some marriage happens in my family, it is custom to donate bedsheets blanket and pillows here. Reason I don't know but that's what we are supposed to do as told by my great grand maternal mother. So recently we did that. Place is hub to nature. One can easily spot the peacocks here and all the Flora and fauna. The place has alot of importance. They say under guruji one pet dog specifically female dog just ate almost 50 KG opium in front of jahangeer जहांगीर badshah and then That king alloted the whole space wherever that dog went. Lot of parking space is available but the link road as of today was under construction which connects pandhori to national highway. Langar is available nearby 1 to 2PM. Tea snacks will be available from 4 PM. SBI bank and ATM are available here for working days only.One has to bow heads in front of Baba mahesh das ji temple while Coming and going also then only the visit will be completed. Market offers prasad which you can take along to temple. Do come and explore this place. Students cannot come without teachers. People come with newly married couples and get blessings of guruji. People come here to get the names of newly born babies. Visit and enjoy.

Very nice place 😍😃 there is many temples in one place very very beautiful temple there is fair in April month We should visit this beautiful place 💗💗😍😍😌😌

On return from Dharamshala to Chandigarh we planned to visit Masroor Rock cut temple. It is a real wonder as temples are built on one Rock just as in Ellora. Though temples were affected by 1905 earthquake but one can see the temple. Restoration work is going on and idols have been kept for worship. However no one is allowed to offer money.

A monolithic rock cut temple of around eighth century. The place is not so popular among tourists. The architecture is wonderful and amazing. Although it was damaged by the 1905 earthquake, still what remains is awesome. A must visit for history lovers.

Masroor Rock Cut Temples – A Hidden Gem of Ancient Architecture Visited on: 6th May 2025 On 6th May 2025, we explored one of Himachal Pradesh’s lesser-known but truly awe-inspiring historical sites —the Masroor Rock Cut Temples. Located about 40 km from Dharamshala, this archaeological wonder is nestled in the quiet village of Masroor, offering a rare and mesmerizing blend of history, spirituality, and natural beauty. These temples are believed to date back to the 8th century and are carved entirely out of a single rock, much like the famous Kailasa Temple in Ellora. The complex consists of 15 monolithic rock-cut shrines, primarily dedicated to Lord Shiva, though some also depict Vishnu and other deities from the Hindu pantheon. What’s most striking is the intricate detailing in the stone carvings—though many have weathered over the centuries, the remaining figures, pillars, and facades still hint at the grandeur of the original structure. The temples face the Dhauladhar mountain range, and there's a serene water tank in front that reflects the entire complex beautifully—especially during clear daylight. The site is relatively quiet and uncrowded, allowing you to explore at your own pace, absorb the silence, and marvel at the craftsmanship. There’s a calm, sacred energy in the air, and it's easy to feel transported to a different era. Highlights of Our Visit: - The panoramic view of the snow-capped Dhauladhars from the temple platform was breathtaking. - The cool stone interiors offered a welcome break from the summer heat. - The peaceful ambiance made it ideal for quiet reflection and photography. Travel Tips: - You'll need to purchase tickets online from the website of the Archeological Society of India - Best visited in the morning or late afternoon for softer light and fewer crowds. - Carry water and snacks, as there are limited facilities around the site. - Wear sturdy shoes—some parts involve uneven steps and rocky paths. - Respect the sanctity of the temple area and avoid climbing over fragile carvings. Final Thoughts: The Masroor Rock Cut Temples are a true hidden treasure of Himachal Pradesh. Though not as widely publicized as other heritage sites in India, they deserve much more recognition for their architectural and historical significance. If you're in the Dharamshala or Kangra region, make the time to visit—you’ll walk away with a sense of wonder and deep appreciation for ancient Indian artistry.

Must visit _ one of 4 across India which are rock cut. This does not have the ellora or mahabalipuram experience but still is a must visit if near here. Dont miss the reflection from the waters and the view from the top

Magnificent historical monument 😻. Visitors are drawn to an ancient era through the wonder of the ancient carvings and wintage nostalgia.It looks quite ancient,though the mentioned info doesn't seem all right .Lot f buddha inspired art also seen.Unfortanely only small pieces of the monument is remaining.

A good place to visit and enjoy architecture and our history. Peaceful. Tickets need to have vash counter as well, online is the only option.

The Masroor Temple, also known as the Rock-Cut Temple, is an 8th-century Hindu temple complex located in the Kangra Valley of Himachal Pradesh, India. It's a remarkable example of ancient Indian rock-cut architecture, carved out of a single sandstone rock. According to local mythology, the Pandavas built the temple during their exile.The temple complex consists of 15 rock-cut temples arranged around a rectangular water pond, reflecting the intricate carvings in its still waters. The temple showcases North Indian Nagara architecture style, with a central shikhara tower and a sacred pool.The temple is dedicated to deities to Lord Shiva, Vishnu, Devi, and Saura of Hinduism, with sculptures and reliefs depicting various gods and goddesses. The temple complex was first reported by Henry Shuttleworth in 1913 and is believed to have been built between the 7th -9th centuries AD.The temple is located in the Kangra Valley, 43 km from Dharamshala. The temple is open from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM.the Entry fees I think ₹25 And the Best Time to Visit in this month ie October to February forpleasant weather and festivals.

Occasionally open... You'll need to get some permissions to enter into the main area. Not an excellent place just moderate Place is surrounded and covered by cantonment board.. Photography outside the premises is not permissible. This place is Also known as Pong dam

It was quite good. Just sit and enjoy the cold breeze and silence. There are water activities too, but not on sunday so we missed those activities.

The most beautiful water reservoir in Kangra, Himachal Pradesh with awesome attractions from all sides. Enjoy boating on different edges and a variety of foreign birds species. A great place to visit for all natural beauty lovers. Summertime is the best to enjoy vacations around this beautiful place.

I went to Maharana Pratap Sagar. Maharana Pratap Sagar, in India, otherwise called Pong Reservoir or Pong Dam Lake was made in 1975, by building the most elevated earthfill dam in India on the Beas River in the wetland zone of the Siwalik Hills of the Kangra region of the province of Himachal Pradesh. It is great place to go.

Maharana Partap sagar Dam which is populary known as Pong Dam built on Beas river in Himachal Pardes just adjacent to Punjab Border. One can visit here after getting the permit from Executive Engineer. But clicking is strictly prohibited due to security reasons . Awesome location and beautiful view.one can enjoy boating and fishing here.

Beautiful place for bird watching and sports activities.

Beautiful place. Immense lake with lots of aquatic life. Paradise for anglers and bird watchers, especially Rancer island. Great place to lay back and relax and to connect with nature.

Dedicated to Mata Chintpurni, also known as Chhinnamastika Devi, the temple is believed to fulfill the wishes of devotees and remove all worries (Chinta). Pilgrims from across the country visit throughout the year, with special crowds during Navratri festivals, when grand fairs and rituals are held. The temple holds immense spiritual significance as it is said to be the spot where the feet of Goddess Sati fell. Surrounded by the serene Shivalik Hills, the temple is a perfect blend of faith, devotion, and natural beauty.

Mata Chintpurni Temple, located in the Una district of Himachal Pradesh, is a revered Shakti Peetha where the forehead of Goddess Sati is believed to have fallen. Known as the goddess who removes worries, it attracts thousands of devotees seeking blessings and peace amidst the scenic Shivalik hills.

visited Chintpurni Mata Temple in Amb, Una, and it was a truly blissful experience. We reached there by taxi, the road was smooth, though about half a kilometer before the temple it became a little sloppy. From the drop point, it was just a 10-minute walk to the shrine. The walk itself felt divine, surrounded by serenity and devotees. The temple is one of the Shakti Peethas, believed to be the place where the feet of Goddess Sati fell, making it a site of immense historical and spiritual importance. The aura inside the temple was filled with positive energy, giving me a deep sense of calm and strength. Overall, the visit was peaceful, well-organized, and spiritually uplifting. I would highly recommend it to anyone seeking blessings, inner peace, and a connection with the divine.

Beautifully built, but of course not looked after properly. Walking thru, you can travel back to the time it would’ve been built - the passion, the vision, its use, the grandeur. Kind of sad to see it in its current run down state. But it’s still a gorgeous building to visit and marvel at its majestic grand beauty. The watchman at the gates were very friendly, as were all the school staff. Beware: you can’t rock up and enter. Since it now operates as a school, due to safety concerns Entry is strictly by permission. Basically you need to know someone who can account for you.

Walk in visit not allowed. Have to obtain DM permission. Please contact Punjab Tourism Dev. Corporation site.

They don't let you go in anymore which is such a shame. It baffles me the policies the government puts in place where citizens of the country aren't allowed to visit it's treasures. Something for @sainik school and the administration of kapurthala to consider. We were asked at the gate to get permission from the DC office where they told us sorry, no permission given!

Nothing to see. They don’t allow anyone to enter.

The Jagatjit Palace has been converted to a Sainik School. The school has been in existence for around four odd decades and has produced some outstanding officer for the defence forces besides other walks of life. The Jagatjit Palace has lost much of its original splendor and is presently in a rather dilapidated condition. The museum has lost much of its sheen and the school building too is in need of repair. However the palace does provide a glimpse of the grandeur that it once boasted including the marvelously painted, etched and sculptured artifact's. The grounds are an excellent place to visit, albeit after seeking permission from the school authorities.

Unless you know someone in Sainik school you can't visit this place

This place is heaven for me. Just loved it

It was great experience with family and friends. But maintance was very poor. We visit science city on Saturday and there was many school students came to visit also. If you are planning the visit, try to plan on week days not on holidays

Beautiful landscape, lots of activities, simulators etc. 4-5 hours required to visit. Somethings require more maintenance but overall nice place.

This place is made to understand the basic concepts of science in a very interesting way. You must visit there once at this place. Very large area, I learned different topics of science there and also understand the basic structure and functioning of human body. It takes 5-6 hours to see all the things. Different topics are- Climate change, Laser show, Flight Simulator, Dome theatre and many more.

Nice place to visit. Particularly interesting for children. It is costly in terms of tickets and entertainement. But with the various activities, toy train, boating, shows, huge area, dinosaur park and children enjoyment, with paying the price. Some area was closed today but enough for the day. Normally they ask for package, you can take package which usually costs lower. There are many scenic area, if you like photography then I believe you should plan according for the day light or Sun light directions for best shots.

Science city is place worth to visit with the students who have some knowledge of science. It’s green, large campus with various blocks on subjects like electricity, laser shows, astronomical block etc is worth visiting.

Pushpa gujral science city, is a beautiful place fr fun, adventure and learning.. So much effort and precision must have been put in to make it wonderful and to keep it that way.. Dinosaur park is really amazing.. It looks so much real, u are bound to be scared.. Go there with kids and your family and you will love it to the core

Set in a sprawling campus, the Pushpa Gujral Science City near Kapurthala is a beautiful place intended to kindle or stoke a scientific bent of mind in young and old alike. Don't miss the Sports Science Centre; it is indeed one of a kind. The Dino Park is interesting. There is enough to keep curious kids interested, especially the Fun and Games oriented exhibits and installations. This place can take an entire day, so plan accordingly.

A beautiful and peaceful temple with divine vibes. The place is very well maintained and the replicas of Amarnath and Vaishno Devi caves are impressive. Perfect for spiritual visits and family outings. Must visit during Navratri!

Devotion and Architecture: ​ Nestled in Arya Nagar, Jalandhar, is a beautiful temple complex that serves as a spiritual haven. The serene environment, punctuated by the soothing sounds of bells and hymns, offers a welcome respite. The temple's landscape is dotted with various shrines dedicated to different deities, creating a harmonious and inclusive atmosphere for all visitors. The architectural style is a fascinating mix of traditional and contemporary elements. While the main structures have the classic tiered domes and spires typical of North Indian temple architecture, there are also modern, clean lines and polished marble surfaces that lend the complex a pristine look. A prominent feature is the impressive golden dome, which is a modern addition but reflects the traditional pyramidal shape of temple shikhara. Among the various deities enshrined here, a large statue of Lord Hanuman stands prominently, representing strength and devotion. The temple's interior is equally beautiful, with intricate carvings on the pillars and altars. The use of white marble gives the space a sense of purity and calm, enhancing the spiritual experience for all who enter. This temple complex is not just a place of worship but a cultural and architectural landmark. It beautifully merges ancient religious traditions with modern design, creating a space that is both historically significant and relevant to contemporary spiritual life. It's a place where you can find peace and feel a deep sense of connection.

Very nice experience at the spiritual place. We stayed at the dharamshala inside the temple premises. For 900 rupees per day, we were given a big room with AC and geyser in the bathroom. Rooms were clean compared to other dharamshalas. It takes around 90 minutes to fully cover all places inside the temple. Mornings and evenings are the best time to visit the temple. It's a bit crowded in the evening. Staying in Dharamshala was a great experience as we can visit the temple any number of times effortlessly. The management personnel were very helpful.

Please visit to get mental peace and calmness you will get a great spiritual experience

Its a beautiful place depicting the famous and fabulous culture of punjab... They charge you at the entry and then everything inside is free of cost..there are plenty of things to do inside... they have live dance performance also... Its a vast area..you will require a lot of time to visit every corner of this place..

The thali was good however there was no fresh safed makhan or makki ka roti or even gulab jamun. The chai was poor because there was no option for no sugar the ladies who made the parantha were never listening to my grandmother who is seventy years old and kept giving her rotis not fresh tawa ka parantha. And the dancing was great however the music is deafening. However the kulfi, dhai Bhalla were amazing, the magic show was great however the chuski was too sweet, I would not recommend bringing the elderly to eat the snacks as it was way too sweet. In the whole Havel was good however this rangale punjab was poor as they didn’t have that many Punjabi food

Great place to enjoy evening. Staff is very nice and food at stalls and main room was awesome. Everything we tasted was superb. It’s an entertainment for family of all ages. Only problem was with astrologer who seems to be a fraud….. used a same old story which frauds use to extract money from you by scaring you. We saw this in Chokhi Dhani Jaipur too but there the guy was good and gave us option.

A must visit place in Jalandhar. Hidden places, things, culture, games everything is preserved there. The food is delicious and they serve it with smileand they will make sure, you are tummy full before leaving

Good food, good service but they can do better. And also we found to be little expensive especially the thalis. But The vibe is great here.

Locatuon is good right at the highway. Inside atmosphere is good but areawise is not so big. Cultural programme is great. Punjab old cluture is displayed everywhere which is good to see if you have come for the first time Inside a big restaurant is there which is included in the entry ticket but frankly I didnt like the food inside and the biggest reason is - We had so many small meals/ food around the restaurant ( stalls everywhere like chaat, candys, ice cream etc) inside and we got full and there is no place left for the dinner. We suggest you to have the fresh baked roti with makkahn and chutney stall and enjoy other small meals ( chaat, pani puri, candys, ice cream kulfi, aam panna jaggery tea etc.), for diner you can opt after sometime post your digestion. Evrything is included in the entry ticket. Overall I feel the entry ticket 1000 is over priced as the place is not so big and also the food option is limited. One time visit is good.

Great experience food was great nice service from the waiters great live Punjabi dancing entertainers

It is a beautiful and peaceful place of worship. Its vibrant decor, fine marble work, and clean surroundings create a welcoming and serene atmosphere. Water facility, parking is ample. Despite the crowds, the Dargah remains calm, making it perfect for meditation and spiritual reflection. Large crowd is expected on Thursday and Sunday. The nearby water lake enhances the beauty and tranquility of the place. Many believe that whoever comes here with faith will have their wishes fulfilled, making it a place of hope and devotion.

Dera Baba Murad Shah Ji 🔱 in Nakodar is a divine and peaceful spiritual place that attracts devotees from all over India. The energy here is truly powerful and fills the heart with positivity and faith 🙏. The dargah’s architecture and cleanliness add to its charm. Thursdays are especially crowded with devotees seeking blessings 🌺. A must-visit holy site symbolizing unity, devotion, and divine grace in Punjab 🕊️.

It is a holy shrine worth thousands of beliefs. The place is beautiful and peaceful. The people believe that their prayers are always fulfilled here. The place has beautiful architecture. Devotees offers rose and prashad to Baba Murad Shah. The place has good cleanliness and well managed crowd for devotees. The backside of the temple is accompanied by beautiful lake with ducks and trees which is very soothing.

The most visiting dargah in punjab . I love this holy place.

It is great devine place. There is a magic and peace here. Sai ji always bless everyone.

This place is heven if your are passing near by must visit place and you shoul put that place in your travel bucket must view place jai baba murad saha ji 🙏🏼

Nakodar. Na koi Aisa Dar. It’s a very divine and a peaceful shrine of Dera Baba Murad Shah Ji and Baba Laddi Shah Ji. One can come and have some peace here. The Dargah premise is very massive in size and it’s so beautiful. The role of management is commendable as the Dargah and its inner surroundings are very clean and very well maintained. Also, don’t forget to buy most famous Besan Barfi from here. It’s so tasty, less sugary and the quality is just awesome. Washrooms are so hygienic and tidy just like International Airports or Shopping Malls. Here, no one runs behind you to make you pay for Dharshan and getting blessings of Nakodar Darbar. The pond behind this Dargah is one of the most cleaned and beautiful pond I have ever seen in my life. The water is so clean and the palm trees surrounding it is just so scenic and amazing. This is a divine place. Please do come and get all your pains and sufferings removed at Darbar. Highly recommended👍👍👍👍🙏👌👌🤎🤎Jai Mastan Di.

The whole place comprises of Shaheed Bhagat Singh Ji's home and museum. It is so clean and so well maintained. Often seems like a casual yet cozy place. Look for the weather and national holidays though.

One of the best place to visit and to pay respect to our Braveheart Freedom Fighter Sardar Bhagat Singh Ji 🙏🙏. We can learn here about all major events of Bhagat Singh Ji's life via audio visual aids and portraits/pictures. A lot of hand written material and other belongings related to Bhagat Singh Ji are kept here nicely. A must visit place with children. Well maintained and managed Memorial with NO ENTRY FEES. Open all days except Monday and Gazetted holidays.

S. Bhagat Singh museum is in Khatkar Kalan, in District Nawanshahar. There you can see lot of his belongings being displayed in the museum. Kids should be taken along to check out the museum so they know about the life of S. Bhagat Singh. Also a short movie being played every time. Near to this a S. Bhagat Singh's Ancestral house which is also well maintained by the Punjab government 🙂

It's a good Garden In nearby areas at ludhiana. Well maintained.

Best time to visit is during day in winters and evenings in summers. General cleanliness of the park is good. It's a good place to bring kids as the park holds good amount of playbees for them (on a payment though) . Best amongst them is the rent a bicycle, where one can hire a bike for self and the kids too and ride it on the bike track inside the park. There is a place which houses the eats, reasonably priced (vegetarian only). Hygiene along with taste including variety would be rated at 7/10.

My recent visit to Gurudwara Nanaksar Kaleeran Sahib was a deeply spiritual and peaceful experience. Surrounded by lush green fields and calm countryside air, this sacred place holds a unique aura of serenity and divine connection. As soon as I stepped inside the Gurudwara premises, I felt an overwhelming sense of calmness and purity. The melodious kirtan (hymns) being sung by the ragis created an atmosphere that touched the soul and helped quiet the mind. The architecture of the Gurudwara is beautiful — simple yet grand, reflecting traditional Sikh design with its white marble and golden dome. The premises were immaculately clean and well-maintained, showing the dedication of the sewadars who serve here with true devotion. The experience was further elevated when I received the Hukamnama Sahib, the divine order of the day, which felt personally guiding and deeply meaningful. I’ve attached the image of the Hukamnama as a cherished reminder of the spiritual wisdom received that day. The Langar (community meal), as always, was a symbol of equality and kindness — prepared and served with love, reminding us of Guru Nanak Dev Ji’s teachings of seva (selfless service) and vand chakna (sharing with others). Overall, my visit to Nanaksar Kaleeran Sahib was more than just a trip — it was a soulful experience that renewed faith, brought peace, and filled the heart with gratitude. A truly divine place that every devotee should visit. 🙏✨ #GurudwaraNanaksarKaleeran #Hukamnama #Faith #Peace #Sikhism #Seva #SpiritualJourney
