Dharmashala was definately a new side to India that we hadn't yet explored. Nestled into the mountainside the chilled area was a haven for backpackers and tibetan monks. The temperature had definately dropped as we had ascended into the Himalyas yet the views from the mountainside were amazing. Dharmashala was a clear favourite for the many backpackers that we encountered along the way not least due to the fact that it offered extensive courses in cookery, meditation and a whole manner of other activities.
Now the official refuge of the Tibetan government the peaceful town was filled with monks and was also the home of the Dalai Lama. Even though we were far up in the hills we still managed to run into a rowdy crowd from Wales, who were there working for St. Johns Ambulance.
