Highlights

The Dharamsala Half-Day Sightseeing Tour offers an enriching exploration of the cultural and natural wonders nestled in the serene landscapes of Dharamsala, a picturesque town in the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh.


Namgyal Monastery, Kalachakra Temple, and the Dalai Lama Temple Complex are three interconnected religious sites located in McLeod Ganj near Dharamshala, in the state of Himachal Pradesh, India. These sites hold great significance in Tibetan Buddhism and serve as important centers for spiritual practices, teachings, and cultural preservation.


As you embark on the journey to Naddi View Point, you'll find yourself traversing through narrow, winding roads that gradually ascend into the heart of the mountains.


Remark: This is a sightseeing half-day tour, so keep in mind the time spent. If you spend too much time at one spot, we will not be able to cover other spots on the itinerary.

Itinerary

  • Namgyal Monastery

    1 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    The Namgyal Monastery, also known as Namgyal Tantric College, is a Tibetan Buddhist monastery located in McLeod Ganj, near Dharamshala in the state of Himachal Pradesh, India. It holds significant importance as it serves as the personal monastery of the 14th Dalai Lama, the spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhism. Namgyal Monastery was established in the 16th century by the Second Dalai Lama, Gendun Gyatso, and was later expanded by the Third Dalai Lama, Sonam Gyatso.
  • Kalachakra Temple

    1 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    The Kalachakra initiation is an important and advanced ritual in Vajrayana Buddhism, particularly within the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. It encompasses teachings on cosmology, astronomy, astrology, and various spiritual practices. The Kalachakra deity is a central figure in this ritual, symbolizing the concept of time and the interconnectedness of all phenomena. Throughout the initiation, monks meticulously create a detailed mandala using colored sand, and once completed, it is ritually destroyed to symbolize the impermanence of all things. The ceremony is attended by Buddhist practitioners seeking spiritual enlightenment and a deeper understanding of the Kalachakra teachings.
