Sikkim, a paradise of natural beauty...
 Sikkim
lies nestled - and almost hidden - between
Nepal, Bhutan, Tibet and Darjeeling in
the Eastern Himalayas. This small but
beautiful land is dominated by Mount Kanchenjunga,
the third highest mountain in the world.
Religion forms an integral part of the
daily lives of the Sikkimese, and Kanchenjunga
is revered as their protective deity.
With 200 Buddhist monasteries dotted across
the tiny land, the influence of Buddhism
is everywhere. Even in the remotest hamlet,
the fluttering of prayer flags are a constant
reminder of the teachings of Lord Buddha.
Until 1975, Sikkim was an independent
kingdom
ruled by Chogyals (kings). The history
of Sikkim's Chogyals dates back to the
sixteenth century, when the first Chogyal
was consecrated by three holy men at Yuksom,
in West Sikkim. In 1974, following a popular
movement to abolish the monarchy, Sikkim
became the 22nd state of the Indian Union.
Long a restricted area, Sikkim now welcomes
the visitors from around the world to
share its rich heritage and natural bounty.
Bhutan, the secret Shangri la...
Bhutan is the best-kept secret in the
travel industry. Due to its relative
isolation, the country is not known to
the outside world and until 1960, western
visitors rarely visited the country. Today
still, few people know of the beauty of
Bhutan.
The few who do visit this magical place
find an ancient Buddhist culture thriving
in a landscape of incredible natural beauty.
The mountains are magnificent, the countryside
green, the pure air and unpolluted and
the architecture striking. Our tours and
treks give you an intimate insight into
Bhutan's Buddhist culture and way of life.
