Darjeeling
the dream land of the East, it has been a popular hill
station since the British period. The tourist flow to this
place has been increasing day by day. Due to the proximity
with three international borders, this place is
strategically very important. Darjeeling is surrounded by
lofty mountains. Outside of the monsoon season (June to
September), the views over the mountains to the snowy peaks
of Kanchenjunga and down to the swollen rivers in the
valleys are magnificent. Darjeeling is a fascinating place
where you can see Buddhist monasteries, visit a tea
plantation and see how the tea is processed, go for a ride
on the chairlift, spend days hunting for bargains in
colorful markets and handicraft shops, or go trekking to
high-altitude spots for closer views of Kanchenjunga. |
