About
Officially known as Chaurasi Kutia, this abandoned ashram of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi became world-famous when The Beatles visited in 1968 to study Transcendental Meditation. Now reopened as a heritage site within Rajaji National Park, the crumbling meditation domes are covered in vibrant Beatles-themed graffiti art, making it a unique blend of spiritual history and street art.
