Frederick Young of East India Company. Lt. Young came to these hills for the purpose of shooting game. He was so enamoured by the beauty that he decided to build a hunting lodge ( shooting box ) on the Camel 's Back Road with FJ Shore, Jt. Magistrate of Doon in 1823. He raised the first Gurkha Regiment and planted the first potatoes in the valley. His tenure in Mussoorie ended in 1844 and he further served in Dimapore and Darjeeling and retired as a General and went back to Ireland. There are no memorials to commemorate Young in Mussoorie. However, there is a Young Road in Dehradoon on which ONGC 's Tel Bhawan stands. In 1832 Mussoorie was the intended terminus of the Great Trigonometric Survey of India that began at the southern tip of India. Although unsuccessful, the Surveyor General of India at the time, George Everest wanted to have the new office of the Survey of India based in Mussoorie. A compromise was to have it in Dehradun, where it still is. In 1850 the first beer brewery in India was built in Mussoorie. By 1894 there were 22 breweries in India producing 6 million gallons a year. By 1901 Mussoorie 's population had grown to 6,461, rising to 15,000 in the summer. Earlier, Mussoorie was approachable by road from Saharanpur, 58 miles ( 93 km ) away. Accessibility became easier in 1900 with the railway coming to Dehradun, thus shortening the road trip to 21 miles ( 34 km ). Mussoorie view from the top of the hill ( can be viewed while traveling on the way towards down of the hill ) The name Mussoorie is often attributed to a derivation of ' mansoor ', a shrub which is indigenous to the area. The town is often referred to as ' Mansoori ' by most Indians. The main promenade in Mussoorie is called, as in other hill stations, the Mall. In Mussoorie, the Mall stretches from Picture Palace at its eastern end to the Public Library at its western end. During the British Raj, signs on the Mall expressly stated : `` Indians and Dogs Not Allowed ''. Racist signs of this type were commonplace in hill stations, which were founded ' by and for ' the British. Motilal Nehru, the father of Jawaharlal Nehru, deliberately broke this rule every day whenever he was in Mussoorie and would pay the fine. The Nehru family, including Nehru 's daughter Indira ( later Indira Gandhi ) were frequent visitors to Mussoorie in the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s, and stayed at the Savoy Hotel. They also spent much time in nearby Dehradun, where Nehru 's sister Vijayalakshmi Pandit ultimately settled full - time. During the 1959 Tibetan Rebellion, the Central Tibetan Administration of the 14th Dalai Lama was at first established in Mussoorie before being moved to its present location in Dharamsala, Himachal Pradesh. The first Tibetan school was established in Mussoorie in 1960. Tibetans settled mainly in Happy Valley. Today, some 5,000 Tibetans live in Mussoorie. Mussoorie today has an increased development of hotels and tourist lodges, given its relative proximity to Delhi, Ambala, and Chandigarh, and has serious problems of garbage collection, water scarcity and parking shortages, especially during the summer tourist season. Landour, Jharipani and Barlowganj have fewer such problems. Mussoorie experiences heavy snowfall during winter Geography and climate Mussoorie has an average elevation of about 2,005 metres or 6,580 feet. The highest point is ' Lal Tibba ', at a height of about 7,500 feet or 2,290 metres, although the name Lal Tibba is now also used to describe a lookout point, a short distance from the peak. Mussoorie has a fairly typical subtropical highland climate ( Köppen Cwb ) for the mid-altitude Himalaya. Summers are warm and very wet, with July and August averaging approximately 660 millimetres or 25.98 inches of rain per month due to orographic lift of the extremely moist monsoonal air. The pre-monsoon seasons in April and May is warm to very warm and generally dry and clear, giving way to heavy rainfall from mid-June, while the post-monsoon season is also dry and clear but substantially cooler. In winter, rainfall is a little more frequent than in the pre-and post-monsoon seasons, and the general weather cool and partly cloudy. Mussoorie usually receives a few spells of snowfall in December, January and February, although the number of snowy days has come down in recent years due to a combination of local and global factors, such as deforestation, construction activity and global warming.

The school traces its origin to the 1850s when a group of English ladies were enlisted by British officers and American missionaries to provide a Protestant education for girls. Woodstock is among the most well - known boarding schools of the Indian Subcontinent, said by some to be currently the best international school in India. ( Others are the Kodaikanal International School and the Hebron School, Ooty, both in South India. ) The school has a campus covering an area of about 250 acres ( 1 km ) and is in a forest region with a variety of flora including pine, rhododendron, and oak.

The school was built at Jabarkhet along the Tehri road and was later shifted to the present Wynberg Estate. The object was to provide for and give to children of wholly or partly of European descent, an education based on Protestant Christian principles ; to maintain such children ; and to give them an academic and practical training conducive to economic welfare and happiness. It now accommodates students of all descents. The school consists of two branches -- the Junior branch ( Wynberg ) and the Senior branch ( Allen ) and accommodates around 700 children. It has four houses : Allen, Powell, Foy and Condon. A student from the institution is referred to as an `` Alwynian.

Waverley is at an elevation of 7,000 feet ( 2,100 m ) above sea level on one of the most extensive and well wooded hills of Mussoorie. The Jesus and Mary congregation was the first congregation of Sisters to come to the north in 1842 at the invitation of Bishop Borghi the Vicar Apostolic of the Agra Mission. The Archbishop requested the sisters to come to Mussoorie to start a school for girls. In 1845 the sisters came to Mussoorie. The estate of Waverley belonging to an Italian gentleman had just come into the market and the nuns bought it. That year saw the commencement of one of the most important Catholic educational institutions in the North of India. Thousands of girls, Catholic and non-Catholic alike, have since passed through Waverley. The small inadequate bungalow which was all the accommodation at first offered, has given place to a group of buildings which dominate the town of Mussoorie.

Previously owned by the Seventh - day Adventists and known from 1922 -- 1969 as Vincent Hill School, GNFCS purchased the land and extensive buildings and founded an international school to the memory of Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji, on the occasion of His 500th birth anniversary, celebrated in November 1969.
