Visit This Picturesque Retreat In The Himalayas For Mindfulness & Healing

Samiksha Chaudhary

With the fast-paced city lives that we live, it comes as no surprise that many millennials and Gen-Z are facing the prospect of burnout at a much younger age. So it becomes increasingly important for them then to rest, sit back, and recoup. And what better way to recharge your batteries than with nature?

An ode to slow and intentional living, The Mandala House is a contemporary retreat experience in the Himalayas, by the River Ganga. Blending modern amenities with artisanal craftsmanship, the property perched above the mystic Alaknanda River amidst a mango and litchi grove offers. It offers a boutique village retreat experience in tune with local culture, silence, nature, and the wisdom of the land.

In The Midst Of Nature- Mandala's Window Seat Loungers

With just three rooms and two eco-mud cottages, Mandala offers an intimate space that blends seamlessly with the outside wilderness. With window seat loungers, a cosy library, a calming meditation deck, an outside pool, and a garden terrace, Mandala offers numerous little ways to be present in nature and to recoup in the serene tranquillity of the Himalayas.

Architecturally, the property is built in a sustainable manner using natural and traditional materials like cow dung, earthen mud, wheat husks, lime, and turmeric. It eliminates intrusion and fosters undisturbed silence so that people can retrospect and focus on individual growth and mindfulness.
