Coorg Tibetan Monastery

Discover Bylekuppe, the second largest Tibetan settlement outside Tibet, complete with a Tibetan monastery with 7,000 monks, a Tibetan village and a flea market.

The Dalai Lama is the 14th in a line of leaders that stretches back to the 15th century and has ruled Tibet since mid-17th century. The death of a Dalai Lama leads to a search for a reincarnation, with regents ruling Tibet until the boy recognized as the Dalai Lama reached 18.
