Journey to north east

 


SIKKIM ; TO THE NORTH EAST

Journey to India’s   first organic state Sikkim was always there in my mind. Now moving to the place of dramatic landscape  .  broadly Sikkim is known for kangchenjonnga , home to glaciers , alpine meadows and thousands of verities of wildflowers.

After reaching   Gangtok  the capital city of Sikkim arranged my stay and get out of the room to see the busy city .  walking  by the sides of MG road is joyful. Looked around and tried to capture all views of the town. On the side of the road the Bakers café cached my attention and I get into the shop to have something particular to Sikkim . The beauty of MG road can be enjoyed from the café .the night at the Gangtok IS SO cold . The dinner at the Tashi delek rooftop garden was so nice .

In the next morning , went to Banjhakiri falls . it’s a travel destination place for the one who have to touch the nature directly . The water lasing into the valley  and sound of water gives a mesmerising mood to the travels . The lunch evergreen beauty of  the place catches the mind and it’s a place where we can hear the sound of nature .

Next place to visit is the Gonjang monastery . a place surrounded by hills. The rays of sun reached there by reflecting from the hills . A unique style of architecture found there is very enthusiastic .Its actually the Tibetan style Buddhist monastery. Looking to the far long places from the monastery is a great experience. The shelters shattered here and there is the view from the monastery . The whole city of Gangtok can be seen from here .The alpine meadows and rhododendron flowers are very beautiful. Every region have some kind of animals ,birds and flowers.

Next  place is Tashi view point . this whole day was travelling . come to see the sun set from the top of the mountain. I simply looked the sunset and gave a good bye to the sun . Kanjanjonga can be seen from this view point. The setting sun have made the mountain  yellowish red colour . This adorns the wide snows into more reflective and I captured the wonderful photos and backed to my hotel.

For reaching Guru dongmar lake I have to first go to north Sikkim.  Reaching north Sikkim is not that much easy certain travel permissions have to be taken . after all these I some how reached there . The foggy morning of north Sikkim is very attractive . The snowy valley and trees that stayed white in the morning. Passing over the bridge over the fastest river Teesta and the two sides were full of snowy wind dazzling over and over . Getting closer and closer to unbearable cold climate . The trees where having leaves other than red. The pattern of rock and whole the topography was having a wide range of verity as well. On the way to the lake we can see worlds highest cafe run by Indian army .  partially snow covered Guru Dongmar lake is India’s highest altitude lake 17.800FT. the lake was surrounded by snow covered mountain. The water in the lake was very clear .

 Travelling to the places of mystery and adventure is always my passion  and its going on.
