Best Cafés in McLeod Ganj, Dharamsala that foodies must visit...

Dharamsala is a cool town in the mountains of India. It’s like a mini Tibet! It used to be a fancy place for British people to hang out, but now it’s all about Tibetan culture and the Dalai Lama.
If you’re looking for a chill place to visit for a few days, Dharamshala is perfect. It’s not as busy as McLeodganj, which is right nearby. You can also check out Dharamkot, a cute little village that’s not full of tourists.
Besides the peaceful vibes, Dharamsala is popular for its art, museums, markets, and food. You can also go hiking in McLeodganj, which is super close.
Just like other mountain towns in India, Dharamsala gets really cold in the winter. So, it’s best to visit in the spring or summer to enjoy the Tibetan culture and have a great time in this little Lhasa.
Once upon a time, a powerful dynasty called the Katoch ruled over Dharamshala for about 2,000 years. But then, in 1848, the British took over the town. Later, in 1860, the Gurkhas came to Dharamshala. They were known as the bravest of the brave and their story is closely tied to the town’s history. The Gurkhas were originally soldiers from Nepal who fought in the World Wars for the British. Their bravery in battle is still remembered today, with many places in Dharamshala named after them. The town was a favorite spot for British people from Delhi, who were thinking of making it their summer capital. But a big earthquake in 1905 changed everything, leaving many people dead. Shimla became the new summer capital instead. After the earthquake, the Gurkhas helped rebuild Dharamshala. Some Gurkhas even fought for India’s independence as freedom fighters. One famous Gurkha, Captain Ram Singh Thakur, wrote a patriotic song called “Kadam Kadam Badhaye Ja” that became well-known during the independence struggle.

Pioneer2596147746814 November 2023Amazing First Time Trek Had the most amazing time. As it was my first time trekking, I was apprehensive about many things. But the Manu adventures made sure I didn’t have anything to worry about. The tour guide was competent and allowed us to trek at our pace. The camping location was beautiful and the host was amazing. The food was great too.
Jet0387232234511 November 2023Amazing experience We had an amazing time trekking to laka glacier! Manu was a great guide, he's a lot of fun and has so much knowledge about the area. Playing cricket at 3300metres was a highlight! Ranu's campsite was really lovely, incredible views and tasty, hearty food! Both Manu and Ranu took really good care of us and we'd really reccomend trekking with them, it's great value for money as well.Camper191655141769 November 2023Trustworthy and Excellent Excellent experience. Vaishalee from Manu adventures has been super helpful in planning our stay in Dharamshala. Suraj was our guide who was brilliant. I was traveling with my 9 year old and he was extremely patient and helped us cover the trek. Very reliable and trustworthy worthy company. They also helped me choose a very good hotel within the main city. Thank you Manu Adventures you really made my stay here memorable.
Susan A8 November 2023Trek and Sightseeing Great trek. Great food. Great friends. Great fun. Fantastic 10 days 5 days trek, 5 sight seeing and travel.
Jenny G8 November 2023Best trekking in the himalayas Best trip ever for trekking in the himalayas. We got to experience the real India as we were not on the tourist trails all time. Had wonderful food and experience of Delhi and Agra was not to be missed.
HCHedges5 November 2023The most amazing experience doing the Dalai Lama trek in the Himalayans with Manu and his team. Wow what a sensational adventure with Manu Adventures. My friend and I searched for a unique trip after being disappointed that our Kilimanjaro trip had been cancelled due to covid 3 years ago with a different company. We searched for something unique and different and challenging and this is what we got with the Dalai Lama Trek in the Himalayas including Delhi and Agra. Manu is truly a saint and a hero to all that meet him. He is so encouraging and has an amazing team that produce some spectacular food, and transport all the camping gear and bags to each camp site high in the Himalayas. We managed to achieve what we thought was possibly unachievable and had the time of our lives and met some inspiring women on this trek team. I highly recommend Manu Adventures and his fantastic team to enable you to achieve anything and everything. And wise words daily from Manu was always “expect the unexpected”😘. Jelo Jelo😂
Sharon B5 November 2023Dalai Lama Trek I have just finished the Dalai Lama Trek with Manu adventures and what can I say it was amazing and exceeded all my expectations. From the organisation of the trip, to the food, the experiences and adventures I’ve had will stay with me forever, I have done so much in the 10 days. I will leave a piece of my heart with Manu and India, it’s a beautiful country.
