In the northeast lies Sikkim, India’s smallest and beautiful state. The state is often considered the gateway to the nation’s Northeastern region owing to its abundance in history, culture and natural resources. Lovers of nature will fall in love with the state’s lakes, waterfalls and verdant forests. Its rich local cuisine only adds to its charms. Its ancient monuments, architecture, and other cultural characteristics make it a historical place with religious significance. Here are top 5 reasons why Sikkim should be your next trip.
Gorgeous views such as the Tsomgo Lake
Glaciers, outdoor life and spirituality are linked with Sikkim and Siki Mese culture. And Tsomgo Lake embodies all this too. The surrounding alpine woodland and blooming rhododendron make the oval lake even more attractive. Lake's water during summer is formed out of melting snow of surrounding glaciers and snowy Himalyan peaks. When it freezes during the winter, it’s an incredible sight. Buddhist monks use the area as a site for quiet contemplation, and it has also reportedly inspired them to make mystical predictions. There is itself a unique experience to visit the lake on the Gurupurnima celebration.
Key Monasteries Of Buddhism
Buddhism is one of the predominant religions in this state, and Sikkim is dotted with several beautiful Buddhist monasteries. It is a splendid example of Tibetan Buddhist architecture, and was home to His Holiness, the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa. Just being within the temple complex is enough to be in a mind of composure and contemplation. The golden stupa at this location, an architectural marvel, is simply gorgeous. Other stupas—like the one that contains the relics of the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa—are just as gorgeous. The palace that has elaborate murals and specially made statues is a beautiful example of the same which we will find in the monastery
Enormous historical significance
Traders and conquerors came into the nation through the Nathula Pass along the storied Silk Road. At 4,310 metres above sea level, this pass is one of the border crossing points between China and India, but not all tourists can access this area. The complete length of the pass is limited to Indian residents with earlier endorsement. Thus, due to its important role in the country's development of commerce and foreign relations, it is undoubtedly one of the places which beckons you when you are in Sikkim. Nearby, blooming junipers, lowland rhododendrons, and ground orchids carpet the sweeping meadows.
The experience that felt the most like the “end of the road”
Just beyond the Indo-Chinese border is Yumesamdong or Zero Point, a land of continuous snow. And it is the end of the road, quite literally, and a sight to behold, especially to grow old on, under that sparkling snow. While Zero Point is rarely a stop on holiday itineraries, a visit to there is definitely worth planning. The beautiful canvas of the landscape, with its magnificent white coat flecked with stunning azalea flowers, is made more special by the grazing yaks and wandering herdsmen.
5.Breathtaking scenes
One of the most awe-inspiring views of the region is the breathtaking volume of water from the Seven Sisters Falls roaring down the Himalayas. The waterfall got its name since the water flows in seven levels, considered even more beautiful in the monsoon. It’s definitely a journey worth making if you’re in the area, just north of the state’s capital. Visitors can relax while watching the magnificence of the pouring water in one of the various tea houses and watershades which you can see which are spread out over the overview region.
