Gangtok Tour & Travel Guide - Tourist Places near Gangtok

Pelling

A small picturesque Sikkimese town in the district of Geyzing, Pelling promises to take every traveller’s breath away with its beautiful alpine mountain ranges and waterfalls that tumble down with amazing alacrity. At 6800 metres above sea level, it is often chosen as a base camp for trekkers, and offers terrific views of several snow capped Himalayan peaks and ranges such as the Kanchenjunga, Dom, Kumbhakarna and Kotan. The Khecheopari lake, in the midst of dense forests, is a beautiful lake and considered sacred by Hindus and Buddhists alike. Also known as the ‘Wishing Lake’, like many others in different parts of the world, this lake is also believed to fulfill wishes of all those who pray to it sincerely.

Darjeeling

West Bengal’s most famous hill station, Darjeeling has been attracting tourists and travellers for several score years even before Indian Independence. Nestled snugly in the Himalayas, it is most famous for its tea gardens and Darjeeling tea is a household name throughout the expanse of the country. Besides offering panoramic views of never-ending tea gardens and several important Himalayan peaks such as the mighty Kanchenjunga, it is also famous for its pretty monasteries. While in Darjeeling, you must board the toy train, dash to Tiger Hill at dawn to catch the perfect sunrise and take a lot of photographs! If you are terribly lucky, you might even spot the elusive snow leopard.

Lachung

A small hamlet in the mountains, Lachung has been recognized as Sikkim’s ‘most picturesque village’ and its lush forests, snow capped peaks and mountain streams, all stand testament to that fact. The Shingba Rhododendron Sanctuary is particularly breathtaking, a unique destination by virtue of several species of rhododendron trees, hot sulphur springs and glacial streams that flow through it. If you are a nature lover, Lachung will find a place into your heart like no place ever has.
