Calcutta & the Northeast, India

Sikkim's capital occupies a dramatic hillside setting with views of Kanchenjunga, blending Buddhist monastery traditions with contemporary mountain town life.

The pedestrian-friendly MG Marg creates a social focal point with cafes and shops, whilst Rumtek Monastery offers insights into Tibetan Buddhist practices.

The city's unique cultural mix of Tibetan, Nepali, and Indian influences creates a cosmopolitan atmosphere unusual in the Indian Himalayas. Gangtok provides comfortable access to alpine landscapes and serves as a gateway to Sikkim's remarkable mountain regions
