The magical lure of the Eastern Himalaya has always attracted people from all over the world. Its mountains and landscape defy imagination and culminate into a masterpiece of the Creator. Nestled among the rolling mountains with the glistening Mt Kanchenjunga towering over the azure sky, Darjeeling fondly called "Queen of the Hills", provides a perfect gateway for those seeking to be in harmony with nature. The name Darjeeling is a composition of ‘dorje’ meaning ‘thunderbolt’ and ‘ling’ meaning ‘place’ … ‘the Land of Thunderbolt’. The refreshing greenery stepped in splendour, verdant hills dotted with blossoming flowers & sprawling tea gardens, musical waterfalls, exotic forest with evergreen pine trees, etc all with the enigmatic snow capped Kanchan Junga are truly a paradise for nature lovers and fun seekers.
