Wake up early in the morning, have your breakfast and we will be heading towards Tiger Hill to experience a breathtaking view of the sunrise from the snow-peaked Mount Kanchenjunga. On a sunny day, you can also get a chance to see the mighty Mount Everest covered with snow. Stop at Ghoom Monastery while returning. It is an ancient monastery where you can see 15 feet long statue of Buddha and beautiful architecture. Later, visit Batasia Loop, a magnificent viewpoint, ideal for having an excellent panoramic view of Darjeeling, the snow-covered Kanchenjunga and other Himalayan Peaks. Visit the War Memorial, a remarkable memorial built in the memory of martyred Gorkha soldiers who lost their lives for the sake of India.
Later, you will proceed to the Himalayan Mountaineering Institute, a perfect place to get closer to the hill-climbing activities. As this institute was built in honour of Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary, it is packed with climbing walls, artefacts, and gears used by Tenzing Norgay for its first expedition to Mount Everest. In our 4 Nights 5 Days Darjeeling Gangtok Itinerary, other attractions and activities include Chitrey Tea Garden, Padmaja Naidu Himalayan Zoological Park (Darjeeling Zoo), Japanese Temple & Peace Pagoda, Tenzing & Gombu Rock. Put an end to this sightseeing journey after visiting all these attractive places. Return to your hotel and take some rest. Finally, overnight stay in the hotel at Darjeeling.
