    Songtsen Library is nice place if you wan't peace time and do self study. It has beautiful garden and architectures build inside. If you are a peace lover this place is definitely for you, though it is located at a distance from the main city but still its aura is worth travelling.

    The most peaceful and meditative place in Dehradun for preparing for competitive exams. A treasure trove of rare books in a peaceful environment with modern and hygienic facilities. Library staff is very polite and cooperative. The building has a beautiful architecture modelling like a Tibetan royal palace surrounded by landscaped garden with flowering trees and lotus ponds, also a vintage Mercedes used by Dalai Lama kept as a open museum display.

    Songtsen Library is a non-profit library located in Sahastradhara Road, Dehradun. It was founded in 1999 by the Songtsen Charitable Trust, and it is named after the Tibetan Emperor Songtsen Gampo. The library's collection includes over 50,000 books in English, Hindi, Tibetan, and other languages. Pros: Large collection of books Friendly and helpful staff Quiet and peaceful environment Affordable membership fees Cons: Can be crowded on weekends Not as well-known as some other libraries in Dehradun Overall, Songtsen Library is a great place to go for anyone who loves to read. The library has a large collection of books to choose from, and the staff is always happy to help you find what you're looking for. The library is also a quiet and peaceful place to study or relax. Here are some additional thoughts on Songtsen Library: The library is open to the public and anyone can become a member. Membership fees are very affordable, and there are discounts for students and seniors. The library offers a variety of programs and events, including book clubs, author talks, and story time for children. The library is located in a convenient location, close to many of Dehradun's tourist attractions. If you are looking for a great place to read, study, or relax, I would recommend Songtsen Library.

    This is not a library,it is the temple of philosophy,learning,wisdom and knowledge.. It is extremely beautifully architectured,you would feel your presence like you were visiting any deep green forest or any serene natural creation.I was reading several scripts about this library over the internet thus writing further here… This library is primarily dedicated as center for Tibetan & Himalayan Studies established by His Holiness Drikung -Kyabgon Chetsang Thinley Lhundup, the 37th throne holder and supreme head of the 800 + year old Drikung Kagyu Lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. This library hosts a vast collection of (Tripitaka) as well as rare manuscripts from Dunhuang, and ancient city on the Silk Road. I was very excited to sit down in this library and read some Tibetan literature,journals and much more and that I did today.loved this space ❤️
