Just visited Ravangla and I have to say, it's one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to! The small town, nestled in the lap of the Himalayas, is surrounded by breathtaking views of snow-capped mountains, lush green forests, and cascading waterfalls.

The town has a calm and serene ambiance, which makes it the perfect place for a relaxing getaway. I enjoyed exploring the quaint streets, trying out the local cuisine, and visiting the monasteries and temples that dot the town. The Buddha Park, with its stunning statue of Lord Buddha, was a highlight of my trip.

For adventure seekers, there are plenty of options to choose from - trekking, paragliding, and river rafting, to name a few. The Tendong Hill trek was a great way to soak in the natural beauty of the place while getting some exercise.

Overall, Ravangla is a hidden gem in Sikkim that's definitely worth a visit. The people are friendly, the food is delicious, and the scenery is simply breathtaking. Highly recommend adding it to your travel bucket list!

????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Sikkimi has some of the most stunning monasteries and Buddhist pilgrimage sites in Asia. For instance, the Buddha Park located about a kilometer from Ravangla town which features a 130ft statue of the Sakyamuni Buddha (consecrated by the Dalai Lama). About 60 tonnes of copper and some 4kgs of gold was used for the statue built in the repoussé technique, one of the oldest metal-working practices in the world. The statue looks stunning when it is lit up after sunset. The complex houses several eateries serving decent tea and coffee, and plates of alu dom-roti, momos or Maggi-Wai Wai bowls. You can also catch up on your gift-buying here. We particularly liked the silk cushions with Buddhist motifs and the diaries and notebooks by local brand, Sikkimis. Another must-visit is the Bon monastery - one of the two in India (the only other one is in Himachal Pradesh). The monastery at Kewzing is built in an Indo-Tibetan style, and is decorated with paintings of deities, and the Bon Buddha. It’s around 6 km from Ravangla along the Ravangla-Legship route.
