“India is a fascinating country, but a first time visitor can be discouraged and frustrated by the prevailing chaos on the roads and markets. But the view of the magnificient Taj Mahal and experience of Satvik living at The Shuklacharya’s Retreat & Spiritual Centre, Bhimtal, Himalayas will let those first impressions fade away.
If Taj is a must see, so is the experience at Shuklacharya’s Retreat & Spiritual Centre for every visitor to India..
The Retreat is clean and has an unusual construction, thanks to one of the many talents of its founder , Shukl’acharya (Shri Pulak Ranjan Shukla.)
The staff is amazingly friendly and makes you feel right at home.
For my future trips to India, Taj and The Shuklacharya’s Retreat & Spiritual Centre would be the only two spots on my travelling list and worth showing to my son.”
