In continuation to earlier four releases, this post in dedicated to the tradition of Buddhism of the region, Bomdila & Tawang- Arunachal Pradesh. Without details you itself judge the vibrancy...

I have not tried to describe the photographs, so that  its purity remain intact.. Enjoy the ambiance, colour, depth, wideness, wildness & Beauty... Be informed, the journey involves rise to altitude about 16,000 ft plus height and temperature equivalent to snow fall conditions. Unfortunately, not seen snow at footstep. But it was equally fascinating...


BOMDILA MONASTERY :











TAWANG MONASTERY : Actually Tawang was a part of Tibets. The McMahon line in 1914 has awarded Tawang to India. Situated at about 10,000 ft height above sea level. besides Monastery, lamas i.e. Monks resides in large numbers.
This is the 2nd. largest & oldest Buddhist Monastery built between 1680-81. A visit of Tawang Monastery is a spiritual experience...












Tawang creats a scenic beauty of panoramic Mountain, Tribe villages, Water falls, Monastery, Snow, Cold,  Military display etc. combines magical essence.

Hope! to meet tomorrow with Tribal Culture... In the meantime, pre-DIWALI warm good wishes...
