Day Trip to Igrejinha & the Khadro Ling Buddhist Temple

We'll pick you up from your hotel in Caxias do Sul at the indicated time, and head south of the city.

Our first stop will be at the Khadro Ling Buddhist Temple, which is one of the major Tibetan sanctuaries in Rio Grande do Sul. The temple, situated on a mountaintop, was established in the 1990s and is currently home to a small community that maintains it.

Following an introduction to the temple's history, you'll have three hours of free time to explore this sacred site that exudes serenity and calmness in every nook and cranny. The sanctuary is also surrounded by abundant vegetation that promotes relaxation and meditation.

Next, we'll visit Igrejinha, a town that began to develop in the late 19th century as a result of the German immigrant population. You'll have another three hours to appreciate the town's Germanic heritage. You can also take advantage of this time to indulge in the local cuisine and go shopping for handicraft products.

Finally, we'll reunite in the center of Igrejinha and return to Caxias do Sul. We'll arrive back at your hotel at around 7 pm.
