Gangtok Tourist Places: Majestic Tranquility Of The Hilly Paradise
Bounding to the far north-eastern corner of India is Gangtok, a capital to the state of Sikkim, a place so serene and set in the beautiful hill station of Eastern Himalayas that one is mesmerized by its enchanting view of monasteries and Tibetan culture.
Gangtok is the capital city of Sikkim, and it is a very beautiful hill station in the Eastern Himalayas. The city sits at an altitude of approximately 5,410 feet. Here, one gets to witness some of the world's most beautiful panoramic views of the world's third-highest peak, Mount Kanchenjunga. Vibrant culture, spiritual significance, and natural splendor have made this city one of the most desirable destinations for travelers in Northeast India.
The landscape is full of luxuriant hills, wide cascading waterfalls, and still lakes that present a serene abode for those in quest of natural retreat. The city is also replete with Buddhist culture and spirituality. In many numbers, monasteries adorn its territories, including the famous Rumtek Monastery and Enchey Monastery-where a site of learning and peace stay together with fluttering prayer flags and traditional stupas along with the ever-present sound of the chanting of monks and provide a very deep experience to the visitor.
