Located in the district of Kangra in Himachal Pradesh, Dharamshala is the Buddhist capital of the state on its western side. This town is prominent because it's home to the Dalai Lama and the Tibetans. Lower Dharamshala and Upper Dharamshala are the two parts of the town and are quite different in terms of appearance and feel, as the former is filled with markets and bazaars, while the latter shows signs of the state's colonial past. Surrounded by the snow-topped peaks of the Dhauladhar ranges and the lush greenery of pine and deodar forests, Dharamshala offers its visitors visual treats at every turn. The summer season, lasting from March to June, is the best time to visit this place as the weather remains pleasant, and one can explore the hills to their heart's content.
