 This is about the beauty of Sikkim. 

 The concept of India has been vigorously deconstructed over the  past decade by various layers of society. Since the advent of Facebook,  the popularity of feminism  has become more widespread; many focus  on the social rights of women and marginalized communities. Amid a  recent waves of patriotism, these concepts have led to lots of debates  on various social subjects; however, the truth lies somewhere  between the success of the Indian Space program and the killing  of humans over the issue of cows. There’s a lot of diversity, some good  and some bad, but, all these depend on human nature, which changes  across time and space. 

 However, the one thing that you can be guaranteed is the scenic beauty of the seldom-visited North Eastern State of Sikkim.

 

 Foreign tourists prefer Goa and Kerala for beaches and Agra for The Taj Mahal, making  them practically a cliché. However, if you ever wish to enjoy the  serenity of the mountains then Sikkim could be your destination. 

 Once a princely state, Sikkim has got all the echoes that the mountains have to offer. 

 If great heights suit you, the Northern and Eastern parts of Sikkim are  highly recommended. The highest point that you would be permitted  to travel to under normal circumstances is Lake Gurudongmar (17,800 ft.)  in Northern Sikkim, close to the Chinese border. The lake never  freezes, even at negative temperatures, and is considered sacred. The  roads are mostly great and if you can rent a motorbike, you will have  one of the best experiences of your life, provided you don’t have  breathing problems at high altitudes. You can see the mighty river  Teesta flowing while on the road, but stick to the roads themselves. The  Indian Army is your only savior there and the Army does a great job 24  hours per day across the length and breadth of North and Eastern Sikkim,  not only in taking care of the border but cleaning roads, as well  as rescuing and helping civilians.

 

 The other hot tourist destination in the Eastern part are the Nathula  Pass (14,140ft), Baba Mandir (13,123 ft) and Tsomgo Lake (12,313ft).  The roads are well maintained in this area and amenities are available  along the road as well. Ravangla (7,000 ft) on the southern side will  welcome you with all its romanticism. It’s a place to have a romantic  holiday with your loved ones and family. The greenery, rainfall, and the  wispy and foggy clouds in the cool breeze will enthrall and transcend  your soul.  There are a lot of hotels there to assure a comfortable  stay. If you would like to view of the mighty Kanchenjunga (28,169 ft) mountain ranges, Pelling is a great place. 

 The golden morning light on the mountains and its reflection through the  clouds will surely have a mesmerizing effect on you. Pelling is known  for its romantic vibes, calmness and Kanchenjunga views. The roads here  are not as great as they are in Northern, Eastern or Southern Sikkim,  but once you view the Kanchenjunga mountain ranges, the bumpy roads  won’t bother you anymore. 

 If you prefer big cities but have an adventurous streak which leads you  to the mountains, Gangtok, the capital of Sikkim, is the place. It’s  clean, well-maintained and a very disciplined city. You can avail  yourself to all the trappings of city life while on vacation  amid enchanting views. 

 If you ever want to take a break from ordinary tourist hotspots, then a  visit to Sikkim is highly recommended. India has 6 seasons and 6 billion  outlooks; among India's 1.311 billion people, Sikkim has its own swag.
