    Have your breakfast and proceed for Gangtok sightseeing. Attractions to be visited today are Directorate of Handicrafts and Handloom, Rumtek Monastery, Chorten, Botanical Garden, Research Institute of Tibetology and View Point.

    Directorate of Handicrafts and Handloom showcases incredible work of art by local artisans. Thanka paintings, hand looms, carpets, cane and bamboo works, wooden carved and painted items, wooden masks, multi-craft items, traditional hats and caps, embroidered products and stuffed dolls are some of the artworks presented here for sale. Directorate of Handicrafts and Handlooms is a major attraction of Gangtok.

    Rumtek Monastery or Dharmchakra Centre is an important Buddhist religious spot and the largest monastery of Sikkim state. It was built in mid 18th century and served as a seat for Karma Kargyu lineage. By 1959, the monastery fell into ruins and but was rebuilt by Karmapa. Maroon and gold hues are generously added to the monastery, which is a Tibetan insignia.

    Chorten or Do Drul Chorten is an eye-catching stupa built in 1945, by Trulshik Rinpoche. The sacred spot also has 108 prayer wheels or Mani Lhakor, Chorten Lakahang and statues of Guru Rinpoche (Guru Padmasambhava). Pilgrims from different regions around the world visit this stupa to offer homage.

    Jawaharlal Nehru Botanical Garden is thick green locale, located near Rumtek Monastery. The garden consists of more than 50 varieties of tree species and a wide range of flowering plants too. For even more refreshing experience, take a stroll in the oak forest. Different orchids are grown in the huge greenhouse inside the garden. For children, there is a recreational area where they can enjoy merry-go-round, see-saw and other swings.

    Namgyal Institute of Tibetology is where you can find a peace of mind. The foundation of the building was laid in 1957 by 14th Dalai Lama and was inaugurated in 1959 by Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the then prime minister of India. Different projects are being worked on in the research institute like the one which seeks to record social history of about 60 monasteries of Sikkim. A visit to this institute gets the person to grab more knowledge about Tibet and Buddhism.

    Tashi View Point is a popular site of the Gangtok, from where you can get a splendid view of Kanchenjunga Peak (highest peak of Indian and third highest peak of the world) and the surrounding. Snow-clad peaks and clouds entwine to invent a hail-worthy aura. To spot peaks changing colors head to the peak before 5 am. You have to climb up the hill through steep flight of stairs to reach the semi-circular platform made for viewing.

    Overnight stay in hotel room.

  • Day 3 : Gangtok - Tsomgo Lake - Gangtok (40 km one side)

    After sumptuous breakfast in the hotel room you prepare for an excursion to Tsomgo Lake that makes people believe that nature can do wonders. This is a glacial lake perched at an elevation of 3780 meters. Indo-China Border is just a few kilometers away from here and so is Nathu La Pass. Trekkers consider this a treasure, as only nature surrounds it and no chaos of human inhabitation, just humungous hills, brahminy ducks, red pandas and other adorable species. A temple dedicated to Lord Shiva is also located on the lakeside. Tsomgo Lake literally means “source of lake” in local dialect (Bhutia). If you are visiting this spot during May and August, you can come across a mélange of colorful flowers, like rhododendrons, blue and yellow poppies.

    Return to your hotel room by evening and spend the rest of time at leisure. Stay overnight in the hotel.

    Darjeeling is known worldwide for its tea-gardens. A splendid expanse of tea-garden is seen strewn all over the hills. The town is located at an elevation of 7100 feet above sea level. Darjeeling Himalayan Railway is also worth a special mention; even UNESCO has considered it a World Heritage Site. During the British Raj, Darjeeling served as a summer capital. Beauty and serenity of this town are indeed unexplainable, and could only be felt. British adorned the town with structures of their own styles and today these structures add more touch to the town’s magnificence.

  • Day 6 : Darjeeling

    Early in the morning before sunset take a drive to Tiger Hill, at an altitude of 8000 feet. Tiger Hill lets you savor the sight of two of the highest peaks of the world, Mount Everest and Kanchenjunga. A peaceful view of the sunrise can be enjoyed from this point. The sun-rays first embrace the peaks of these two peaks and gradually spread throughout the panorama.

    When done with Tiger Hill, head to visit Ghoom Monastery, Peace Memorial and Batasia Loop.

    Ghoom Monastery is Tibetan Buddhism school, with a statue of Maitreya Buddha which is 15 feet high and catches the eye. The monastery was built in 1875 by Lama Sherab Gyatso. Images of Chenrezu and Chongapa (disciples of Buddha) are also placed in the monastery. Batasia Loop is a rich manicured garden where you can pay homage to the martyrs in War Memorial or spot Darjeeling Himalayan Train cooing and heading to its destination.

    Mirik is perched at an elevation of 1495 meters above sea level. Almost everybody who visits Darjeeling makes it a point to not miss visiting Mirik too. Lakes, tea gardens, orchards and view points are few of the many things that attract huge number of tourists. Cruising aboard a shikara on Sumendu Lake is a soulful experience. Buddhist Meditation Center Bokar Monastery is recommended for peace-lovers and spiritual people. You may also take a stroll around orchids and tea gardens or just relax at different viewpoints and enjoy the sight.
