McLeod Ganj — "Little Lhasa" — is the most concentrated centre of Tibetan Buddhist culture outside Tibet. Monasteries, thangka painters, and Himalayan trekking. Ayurveda in McLeod Ganj is not the spa-Ayurveda of European wellness hotels. The practitioners here follow clinical protocols: pulse diagnosis, constitution assessment, and treatment programmes designed around your specific needs. Seven days is the most popular retreat length in McLeod Ganj for good reason — it's enough time to develop a real practice routine, experience the local culture and environment, and return home with something that lasts. The first two days are arrival and settling; the final two are integration. Budget yoga retreats in McLeod Ganj — under $500 for 5–7 nights — typically involve shared accommodation, simple vegetarian meals, and daily group practice. The value at this price point in Himachal Pradesh is extraordinary by global standards. Don't confuse budget with low quality: some of the most respected teachers here specifically choose accessible pricing.
