What travellers are saying
- Bab L1 contributionVery nice walk up from Gallu Devi.
I was charged 200 rupees for the ticket, which states that the fee is 100.
So apparently the guy puts 100 in his own pocket.
The other 100 could be invested into somebody cleaning up all the litter left at the top.

- Andrew SBerkhamsted, UK214 contributionsGreat view point - but I’d hesitate to make the trip up there if you weren’t using it as the starting point for a trek/hike. We did a gentle 8km around the mountain and back down into Bhagsu and McLeodGanj. The views from Naddi are great, no doubt, but for me it’s a starting point rather than a destination in itself.Written 15 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- SuryaNefer42 contributionsAmazing trek to the Temple, the road leads along the mountainside with beautiful views. You can easily go with kids. It is not so difficult. But you can feel that with the every step with this power of Nature you are closer to Devi.
Before this way you can stay at Naddi River Point where you can rest with your feet in the river and drink or eat somethingWritten 27 June 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

A clean pool situated adjacent of temple you can bath there. There is a Waterfall backside of temple in the name of Bhagsunag. Both are tourist attraction of Mcleodgunj.Written 27 November 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Musicians Mum1,329 contributionsJust between the two main roads in Mcleaod Ganj market area ,so convenient to eneter into this small temple.
Stairs are very narrow,climb up out onto the rooftop and up to see the statue in the actual temple.
Colourful stupa ground floor.Written 31 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

When you get to the security gate you can take the stairs or ask for directions to a lift that takes you to the top floor. Here you will witness newly ordained monks together with those who have been praying for many decades: a unique and truly special place to visit. There is also temple in the grounds which would be peaceful if it wasn’t for the many tourists yapping rather than observing silence! There is a big market outside the complex so make sure you pass through but remember to bargain firmly to counter rip off tourist pricing.Written 31 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Andrew DSingapore, Singapore398 contributionsComing here, it is interesting to witness the pilgrims going about their prayers. The site is expansive enough with many side temples and they are beautiful decorated with gorgeous Thangka paintings. There is also a lovely kora walk surrounding the complex which is good if you fancy a nice hilly stroll with a peaceful vibe!Written 14 May 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Namgyal Monastery also called Dalailama Temple. There are Institute, admistration office and residence of Dalai lama, library adjacent of temple. This place is very calm. There is no entry fees.
