It was always my dream to visit Mussoorie and Landour and all those places which I read in the books of Ruskin Bond. I never had the desire to meet him. I knew him through his books and that was enough for me to share a bond with him.


We took an early morning bus to Mussoorie from Dehradun bus stand. As the bus hurried from the streets of Dehra and climbed the ghat, I gazed above to see if I could get a sight of the queen of hills but the sharp turns and hairpin bends kept us swaying on our seats. The bus took 45 minutes to drop us at Library Bazaar.


For most tourists visiting Mussoorie, the Mall Road is the beginning and the end. Either they take a walk or cycle rickshaw along the Mall, do a little shopping and enjoy a meal in one of the numerous restaurants.


But Mussoorie has more to offer beyond the Mall Road. First two days we explored some places by walking. Walking is an essential part of the Mussoorie experience in which lies the real pleasure of taking in the fresh air. There are few unspoiled places which should be approached only on foot.


Bored of parathas & omelettes for breakfast. Craving for south indian food in Mussoorie? Go to Cafe Madras on the Mall Road. Simple menu with tasty food and spacious seating. They serve 3 kinds of chutneys with unlimited sambar.


This walk traverses through the busy Mall Road where you can also take a ropeway to reach Gun Hill situated 400 ft above the Mall. Otherwise it is a 30 minute walk from the town. It was our first cable car experience but Gun Hill has nothing much to offer except food and game stalls and shops where you can get your pictures taken in Garhwali costumes.


The highlight of this walk is HAPPY VALLEY ROAD. Happy Valley is a Tibetan settlement overlooking Doon Valley. It houses IAS Academy, Municipal Gardens, Tibetan homes and a Buddhist Temple. Gentle slopes and, traffic-less roads make it a treat to take a stroll. This place has a history of the Dalai Lama attached to it which makes a more interesting visit.


As we entered Happy Valley, we crossed the homes, school and various estates belonging to the Tibetan settlement. The winding roads surrounded on one side by deodar trees took us to Shedup Choepelling Buddhist Monastery. The monastery, mostly painted white is ornamented with lamps and blissful painting on the walls and ceilings. We took a stroll around the temple rotating the prayer wheels. And spent some silent time soaking in the peaceful vibe of the place.


A short hike on a designated walking trail next to the temple took us to the DALAI HILLS. The Dalai Hill boasts some of the most enchanting and scenic views. After some climbing, the entire walking trail and flat hill top is covered by innumerous multi-colored prayer flags adding vibrance to the mesmerising beauty of the hill. A massive golden statue of Buddha is present on the top. The brown mountains, blue sky, white clouds and colourful flags swinging in the wind was a very welcomed refreshing change.
