St. Paul's Church, Landour
St. Paul's is an Anglican church in Landour, India. The church was built in 1839 and first consecrated on May 1, 1840, by Bishop Daniel Wilson of Calcutta. From 1840 to 1947, the church was run by military chaplains for the cantonment used primarily by the British residents of Landour and the British Military Hospital during the British Raj.
St. Paul's was built in 1840 by Bishop Daniel Wilson who saw the need for the construction of a church in Landour, which would become the main station of the Anglican church in the Dehradun district. Upon its opening, St. Paul's was government owned and could seat 250 people. It was created for the particular use of the British troops based at the Landour convalescent depot.
The year 1857 marked the Indian Rebellion of 1857, an event the church record refers to, from the British perspective, as the insurrection of 1857. Rev. W.J.Jay was the chaplain during this period (1856—1857) and regular services were held uninterrupted.
In 2005, the Pastorate Committee proposed the restoration of the church roof, due to leaking. Some money to fund the repairs was raised by the congregation but it was not enough to pay for the restoration work. At this point, some former students of Woodstock School stepped forward to help fund a complete restoration of the building. The works were completed in November 2008.

St. Paul's church in Landour - next to Chaar Dukani
Just next to the little bazaar of Chaar Dukani of Landour and the Language School where foreigners learn to speak Hindi stands this church known as St. Pauls' Church.
Landour, a small cantonment town contiguous with Mussoorie, is about 35 km (22 mi) from the city of Dehradun in the northern state of Uttarakhand in India. The twin towns of Mussoorie and Landour, together, are a well-known British Raj-era hill station in northern India. Mussoorie-Landour was widely known as the Queen of the Hills. The name Landour is drawn from Llanddowror, a village in Carmarthenshire in southwest Wales. During the Raj, it was common to give nostalgic English, Scottish, Welsh or Irish names to one's home (or even to British-founded towns), reflecting one's ethnicity. Names drawn from literary works were also common, as from those by Robert Burns, Walter Scott, Thomas Hardy, Robert Louis Stevenson and many others.

Landour Sisters' Bazaar, Prakash's shop, Prannoy Roy and Dev Anand's house : aerial view
An aerial view of Landour Sisters' Bazaar, Prakash's shop, Prannoy Roy and Dev Anand's house. Mussoorie may steal the limelight, but Landour has a charm that makes it stand out in its own right. A town that is practically a part Mussoorie (indeed, they are referred to as twin towns) is as interesting as the larger town, itself – the tiny little hamlet of Landour. a town that is practically a part Mussoorie (indeed, they are referred to as twin towns) is as interesting as the larger town, itself – the tiny little hamlet of Landour. Landour has a few buildings of architectural and heritage value. The “Castle” on top of Castle Hill has been modified so much that it is no longer recognizable from old photographs. The Clock Tower at the beginning of Landour Bazaar is a landmark which is held to separate Landour and Mussoorie. There are four Raj-era churches: the Kellogg’s Church, the church of St.Paul in Char Dukan, the commercial area,the Methodist Church in Landour Bazaar, and St.Peter’s Church, atop Landour Hill; the last two are in disuse.

Landour Solo Holiday
Did you know, Ruskin Bond the famous internation poet, owns a house in Landour and very much resides here to draw inspiration for his work!! Need I say more about the beauty of this place!?
Landour has come to become a place very close to my heart.. partly’ cuz of its pristine beauty but i guess also my going there #solo may have a role to play too! The place has a #retro #english #oldbritish #charm to it. The perfect #hillstation The weather never stops to play its magic especially this time of the year.. in a huge sucker for #snow but i missed experiencing that! #nexttime and yes i sure hope there is one! The hotel i stayed at @rokebymanor well i might run out of adjectives to describe it! A #heritage #property with #history attached to it... you’ll seea glimpses of that towards the end of this post.. #slick #cosy #woodfloors #stonewall interiors #warm staff and every corner with a view, be it outward or inside! My #room is the most special part of the #hotel n was especially picked by me over other “deluxe” Rome offered to me and you’ll see the reason why!! There’s also a #trivia question #challenge in the video, about a feature on St. Paul Church.. put down your #guess in the comments section and I’ll confirm the #answer
So I spent my morning skimming through the streets of this cute 'lil town, thn the martket - Sister's Bazar and then joined my gang coming from Mussoorie, at Tehri bus station. We rented vespas from Mussoorie and rode around! We crossed the lengths of several mountains to reach Dhanaulti.. a short trek here, a little over rated if you're not a temple person, and then rode back to Landour!
We enjoyed #garamgaram hot chocolate and amazing waffles at Char Dukan! What I missed was enjoying the beautiful sunset from Cafe Ivy, but I guess there's anyway going to be a #onemoretime to this place!
The highlight of the entire holiday, for me, was the last morning that I spent here, before starting my return journey! If you want to know the true beauty of a place, 6AM it is! That's when I reached the Lal Tiba point! Your view from here is flanked with the gigantic and gorgeous snow capped himalayan mountains! And then imagine sneaking into a closed cafe to reach the terrace and then witnessing, straight from a fairytale sunrise, from behind the mountains with no other soul around! Just connecting with yourself to absorb it all!
All this and more in this vlog! Hope you guys enjoy! Look forward to your comments!
