Shedup Choephelling Temple


LOCATION

Shedup Choepelling Temple is a small


Tibetan Buddhist Temple, which is
located in Happy Valley, about 1 km from
Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of
Administration and 2.5 km from
Company Garden

The vibrantly colored pillars and murals, and prayer wheels


adorn the temple structure. Situated in one of the most
ABOUT picturesque and calm surroundings of Mussoorie, the shrine of
Buddha presents a great place to meditate and contemplate.
Inside the temple there is a life-life status of Dalai Lama.

Happy Valley is the place where Dalai Lama took refuge and initially established the Tibetan
Government in 1959. Many Tibetan refugees live here and maintain a spotlessly clean
temple for people of any religion to visit. One can have the most amazing views of the Doon
valley from the temple premises. The temple also grants the visitor a perfect position to see a
beautiful sun set
