Stop At: Sela Pass, State Highway Arunachal Arunachal, Tawang India
The highest pass on the way to Tawang from Dirang, the Sela Pass, acts as natural border between the West Kameng and Tawang districts of Arunachal Pradesh.
The views from atop the pass are fantastic. It makes for a perfect quick stop to have some pipping-hot maggi (noodles) & tea.
Just a little ahead, as you start your descent, the gorgeous sela lake compels you to stop and gawk at its beauty. A walk around the lake is a fantastic experience.
What's more, during the winters, the lake remains completely frozen, just like everything else around it.

Undoubtedly, the most important place (and equally gorgeous) place to visit in Tawang is the Gaden Namgyal Lhatse or the Tawang Monastery. Housing 65 residential quarters for students, Lamas and monks, this monastery, which is also the world's largest Buddhist monastery now, is a small town in itself, with its own school, water-supply system and hospital.
Buddhist prayers, dances and many religious are regularly performed here and it is quite an experience them in person.
