Gurupura Tibetan settlement
Posted By thecouple
Just after HD Kote, on the road to Nagarhole (and Hunsur) is Gurupura Tibetan settlement, which has about 10-12 villages.
The Tibetan refugees came and settled around Gurupura in 1960s after the Chinese invasion of Tibet. Zongkar Choede Monastery was established in Gurupura recently . While trying to settle down in the foreign country, they seem to be trying hard to preserve their traditions and culture.

About us
We, Unny & Bindhu, are a couple currently based in Mumbai. The best introduction can be: He (Unny) - Armchair traveler. Reluctant reader. Would-be writer. Amateur photographer, Day dreamer… and likewise, a pretender of too many things.
She (Bindhu) - Add a few more pretensions - a good cook, a good host, etc. Easily mistaken for a serious, intellectual reader, but far from it. Engineer by qualification; freelance writer by choice. Also volunteers as a teacher for Akanksha, an NGO.
