 | Ananda in the Himalayas // India Ananda in the Himalayas
Overlooking the Ganges, to the North of India, the Ananda, which is nestled in the Himalayan foothills, enjoys a lush forest landscape for a backdrop, that looks like it is reaching up to the clouds. An exceptional setting indeed! This majestic building goes back to 1895, when it was built in the heart of a fifty-hectare domain recalling the pomp and splendor of the royal era. Formerly, the lands and the palace of the Maharaja of Tehri-Garhwal, this extraordinary hotel has not lost the allure of its rich past. In Sanskrit, Ananda means « health and contentment ».
