Located in the Garhwali Himalayas, Mussoorie is a hill station in the state of Uttarakhand. The town of Mussoorie lies at an average elevation of 1880 meters above sea level. It was intended to be the office of the Great Survey of India which was eventually established at Dehradun. Tourism remains one of the main sources of the town's economy and the town is full of bed and breakfasts, luxury hotels, cafes and bars. The hill station is famous for its blue, misty and snowy hills, bright and green valleys, distant views of the Ganga and Jamuna rivers, as well as the Doon Valley and the town of Dehradun that it overlooks. Mussoorie is often called Mansoorie by the locals after "Mansoor", a local shrub indigenous to this region. The town was also known as the first place where the 14th Dalai Lama arrived in India after the Tibetan rebellion of 1959.
