Hi Folks,
We just returned from Sikkim a few days back. Annual vacation…
Sikkim is a beautiful state! Warm people, great traffic sense, clean, tourist friendly, picture post card views, yum local cuisine…
We covered the usual tourist points in and around Gangtok, Ravangla , Pelling, Lachung and Lachen apart from visits to Tsomgo (Changu) lake, Guru-dongmar lake (located at 17,800 ft. where we also got to see the Indian Army at work – protecting our borders. At that height they also run a small canteen for tourists – Coffee, tea and soup! Out here, we were at one of the highest cold deserts in the world), Rabdentse Ruins (Old capital of Sikkim), Yumthang valley (at an elevation of 11,800 ft, that houses the Rhododendron Sanctuary within the Valley of Flowers), Temi Tea Garden (The one and only tea garden in the State that produces top quality teas for the international market) and of course a few monasteries.
You must visit Sikkim. We are planning to go there again...
Regards
Vimal
