Gangtok
The monsoon months (May to September) have their own special charm. Rain water cascades down the craggy or emerald green mountain slopes in scores of milk-white rivulets and waterfalls to join the Teesta river and its many tributaries that flow through the State. Snow-white clouds rising from the river valleys come rolling by, engulfing the whole countryside in sublime tranquility. It is truly an unforgettable experience. Gangtok (1750 m), the capital of Sikkim is a blend of the modern and traditional, where present day concrete multistoreys cling to the hillside amidst chortens, stupas and monasteries; where you see lamas in their colorful maroon and saffron robes mingle among local youth in jeans and T-shirts.
