A note on Tawang, Arunachal Pradesh

An extremely large notch on the earth hemmed by spectacular mountains sprinkled with gold and white gompas (Tibetan and Buddhist ecclesiastical fortifications of learning, lineage and sadhana, monasteries), the Shangri La, the Tawang Valley is ready to be discovered at the end of a long picturesque route up from the Brahmaputra plains. Getting to this beautiful valley itself is an experience as you go meandering up and down the mountainsides where one can catch a view of colourful prayer flags and stupas increase rapidly, while the exuberant jungle gradually gives way to icy passes and peaks. Most of the inhabitants in and along the journey to Tawang are Monpa, a Buddhist community who had their closest links with Tibet according to History.
