Hill station in Uttarakhand, India
Happy Valley is an area situated within the hill station of Mussoorie with majority of Tibetans settled in area in Dehradun district , Uttarakhand , India.
Location [ edit ]
Happy Valley is near the Indian Administrative Services Academy - Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration . Within the valley is a Tibetan Monastery[1] with a clear view of Hathipaon.[2] [3]
Happy Valley is west of Mussoorie ’s Dalai Hill[4] from where the mountain ranges of Jaunpur[5] and Nag-Tibba[6] are visible.
History [ edit ]
On 18 October 1929 Mahatma Gandhi addressed the European municipal councillors at Mussoorie . At that time he stayed at Birla House in Happy Valley.[7] [8] [9] [10]
One of the landmark events in the history of the Tibetan government in exile in India happened in April 1959 when a young Dalai Lama arrived at Happy Valley.[11] [12] In April 1960, he left Happy Valley for another hill town - Dharamshala in Himachal Pradesh [13] [14] with an entourage of eighty officials of the Tibetan government in exile.[15]
Later, this government-in-exile moved to Dharamshala in Himachal Pradesh leaving behind at Happy Valley, a community of Tibetans who have integrated with the life and culture of Mussoorie , but had built a Buddhist Temple and Tibetan-style homes.[16] [17] As of 2016, Happy Valley still was home to about 5000 Tibetan refugees.[18] [19]
Characteristics [ edit ]
Happy Valley has an Indian Administrative Service Academy - The Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration .[20] [21] [22] it also has Tibetan Temples[23] and a Municipal Garden. The area of the valley leads to the Cloud's End[24] - a place where the geographical borders of Mussoorie end. The Hathipaon Park Estate is also there.[25]
From Happy Valley can be seen the whole of Mussoorie with George Everest 's house on one side[26] and the Himalayan ranges on the other.
