Kalpa

 

Picture clicked from hotel balcony at Kalpa.Buddham Sharanam Gaccha mi Dharmam.....chants fromthe monastry used to wake me upat 0400am every morning during my 02 night stay in Kalpa.

This certainly is the place so quite and peaceful that you donot feel like leaving this place.To my surprise, many foreigners, i saw and met were staying there for over a month.But i would say this place is worth a visit.
