This Darjeeling Travel Experience is unconventional and a lot more different. We stayed here for 2 days and 2 nights. Most of the local sightseeing attractions are walkable up to 30 minutes from the Darjeeling Main Market (Mall Road). We spent half a day visiting the Mall Road Markets and enjoying local shopping.
The real adventure was Mirik which is a scenic place just about 35 kilometers from Darjeeling. We experienced a mind tickling weather change as we moved from Darjeeling to Mirik. The tea farms were truly enchanting and refreshing. Mirik has a beautiful lake and one halt at the Pashupati Fatak to obtain a quick entry into Nepal. Indians nationals can show up their Government Identities and enter Nepal.
Places we visited in Darjeeling:
Mall Road
Darjeeling Chowrasta
Nightangle Park (10 min from Mall Road)
Batasia Loop
Buddhist Monanstry in Ghoom
Places we missed during this trip and are worth visiting:
Himalayan Zoo (Closed on Thursdays)
Tiger Hill (Sunrise Point 3 hours from Darjeeling - Skipped due to bad visibility)
Hospitality: Pine Tree Resort and Spa, Darjeeling
