I was done backpacking for this season - freakin hot summers. But my sweetheart friends thought of a trip only in this season of all. As we were six and for obvious climatic reasons, we booked ZOOM Car from Bangalore. Started around 11 AM from Silk Board expecting the crazy Mysore road traffic on a Friday. On the way our Pitstop was the Tibetan Settlement - Bylakuppe . After China captured Tibet, Tibetians are staying in such settlements here and there. You can visit one Monastery to the left after Camp 1 which will give you ultimate peaceful experience, instead of visiting Golden Temple which has become super commercial and crowded. Peaceful Monastery left to Camp 1 Aditya trying his best at Golden Temple I : Why there are so many Tibetians gathered here and everyone seems to be praying. Tibetan Guy: Our Grandmother has come and they are all here to pray for their people and their country. The grandmother and Dalai lama will be heading to US to ask for help. W
