Yumthang Valley

Reviewed By Prabhayamuna - Chennai (Madras), India

Visited during May 2019, During this time of year May, It is a Purple color treat for us. Rhododendrons are in full bloom during our visits, This Valley is definitely treat for our Eyes during season time of Mid April to May. Surrounded by Snow Capped Mountains, lovely river flow, yak ride along the river bed, Just Mesmerizing. Guys, after taking photos, just sit in the bench fixed along the river bed, forget about all, just enjoy the view and weather, Your worries will be vanished. Yak ride charges here are less than Changu lake. Must go place during season with Young Kids.

Lachung Monastery

Reviewed By Dipayan_Chakraborty - Bengaluru, India

We spent some time birding in the thickets that surround the monastery (called a Gumpa locally) and it was a very productive session. We got the Sikkim Treecreeper and Maroon-backed Accentor there. Very nice thick jungle. The Gumpa itself is very typical of the N.Sikkim area with cool frescoes and carved woodwork. Well worth an afternoon visit
