Introduction,
Darjeeling is a town in the Indian state of West Bengal. It is the headquarters of Darjeeling district, in the Shiwalik Hills
on the lower range of the Himalaya, at an average elevation of 2,134 m . The name "Darjeeling" is a combination of the Tibetan
words Dorje ("thunderbolt") and ling ("place"), translating to "The land of the thunderbolt." During the British Raj in India,
Darjeeling's temperate climate led to its development as a hill station (hill town) for British residents to escape the heat of
the plains during the summers.
Darjeeling is internationally famous for its tea industry and the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The tea plantations date back to the mid 19th century as part of a British development of the area. The tea growers of the area
developed distinctive hybrids of black tea and fermenting techniques, with many blends considered among the worlds finest. The
Darjeeling Himalayan Railway connecting the town with the plains was declared a World Heritage Site in 1999 and is one of the
few steam engines still in service in India.
Sikkim, tucked away in India`s Northest corner, betwen Tibet, Bhutan and Nepal is, without question a very special part of
India, beautiful, unspoilt, green, full of orchids, mountain, butterflies and monasteries, and home to some of the gentlest
people you could wish to meet.
Gangtok means, aptly enough,"hill top" and the little capital of Sikkim is perched at 5500 feet high on the ridges of a valley.
From Gangtok, you look over the hillside, down and across to terraced fields, with tall, white Buddhist prayer flags fluttering
in the wind, and endless stunning backdrop of towering snow capped peaks.
Kalimpong, Nestled in the lush mid ranges of the Himalayas, this hill station of "the Raj", has an incredible stunning backdrop of
towering snow capped peaks.
