Sikkim shares borders with Tibet in the north, Bhutan in the east, Nepal in the west and the state of West Bengal in the south. Its unique and drastic variation in altitude ranging from 244 meters to over 8586 meters, Sikkim offers visitors a rare life time chance to experience the changing life styles within a moderate distance, from sub-tropical heat of the Indian plains to the cold snow capped of the mountain slopes.

You will the chance to see gorgeously decorated Buddhist monasteries and Hindu temples, vivid festivals, mask dances and cultural programmes.

Known as the Queen of The Hills, Darjeeling is a world famous station in India. The mighty Kanchenjunga provides a beautiful background to this small town adding to its natural beauty. It's a very famous holiday resort and has a touch of the British influence that prevailed in the British rule in India. In and around Darjeeling are many lush green tea plantations producing the world famous Darjeeling tea-a sight worth seeing.

Through the lush green hills to Darjeeling, runs a unique small train, aptly called the TOY TRAIN, which has been declared as the World Heritage Site by the UNSECO.
