About Gangtok
Incredibly alluring, pleasantly boisterous, and wreathed in clouds — Gangtok, the capital of Sikkim, is one of India's most popular hill stations at 1,650m. On bright sunny days it offers spectacular views of Mt. Kanchenjunga. Gangtok is a base for adventure enthusiasts — trekkers and campers heading to the Himalayan ranges. During March to mid-May, wild rhododendrons transform surrounding regions into vast colourful carpets. Its name meaning 'hill-top,' Gangtok blends cultural identities with urbanisation perfectly. Natural attractions include Tsomgo Lake
