Mcleod Ganj

  • Mcleod Ganj, (swimming pool)10 kilometers from Dharamsala

    (Little Lhasa) is the new home ofthe exiled people of Tibet

    led by the Dalai Lama. India offered them refuge and they

    have converted this hill station into a wonderful home for

    Tibetan art, tradition and culture. Tsuglag Khang, The Dalai

    Lama’s temple complex, is the life-blood of the town. Located

    a short walk away from the bus station at the center of town,

    the complex houses the Namgyal Monastery (which trains monks

    for rituals associated with the temple), the main temple and a

    smaller shrine that houses a huge gilded statue of the Buddha,

    along with two smaller, but no less impressive statues of
    Chenresig and Guru Rinpoche. In addition, the Dalai Lama’s residence

    and administrative offices are in the complex.
