Destination Chandragiri – The Mini Tibet of India

Located approximately 250 km from Bhubaneswar and Visakhapatnam, Chandragiri is home to the magnificent Jirang Buddhist Monastery, inaugurated by His Holiness the Dalai Lama in 2010. With its Tibetan architecture, vibrant murals, golden stupa, and prayer wheels, it is one of Eastern India's largest monasteries.

The region also enchants with its rolling hills, verdant landscapes, Khasada Waterfall, and the mystical aura of the Eastern Ghats — making it one of India's most inspiring yet undiscovered luxury destinations. This development adds to the most awaited luxury hotels that are set to redefine hospitality experiences.
