How will it be if it would be possible to visualize the snow claded view of Kanchenjungha and other ranges of Himalayas very closely along with some marvelous lakes and waterfalls with divine beauty??????
The answer is described below:
****Brief Description about Pelling the popular hill station of West Sikkim****
Pelling is a town in the district of West Sikkim, India. Pelling is...

nestled at an altitude of 2,150 m (7,200 feet). The town is located at a distance of 10 km from the district headquarters of Geyzing. A regular bus service connects the two towns. However with the influx of tourists, the region is undergoing a metamorphosis, with the roads being repaired and hotels being set up.
The Himalayas and the Kanchenjanga may be viewed at close quarters from Pelling. Pelling also forms the base from where trekkers and other peripatetic adventurers undertake the strenuous and arduous treks in West Sikkim. The land around Pelling is still a virgin territory and is bathed with alpine vegetation, with numerous waterfalls lining the hillside. In the months of winter, Pelling is sometimes covered with a blanket of snow
.
Pelling is 115 km from the state capital Gangtok and about 135 km from Siliguri, the nearest railhead and airport.From New Jalpaiguri Pelling is 139 km via NH 31A taking 2.5hrs approx. Regular jeeps connect Pelling to the towns ofJorethang, Kalimpong and Namchi. The nearest airport is Bagdogra airport.
Most of the people of Pelling are Buddhists and speak the Sikkimese language. Other languages spoken are Nepali, Hindi, and English.
Major Tourist Attractions
Places to visit in and around Pelling include the local monastery, the rock garden and waterfall at nearby Rimbi, the imposing double-pronged Kanchenjungha Falls, the archaic quaint Singshore Bridge, the Chhange Waterfalls, the Khecheopalri/Khechuperi Khecheopalri Lake holy to Buddhists and ancient Pemyangtse/Pemyangshi Pemayangtse Monastery.
Other proximate locations to Pelling are Yuksom, Rinchenpong, Dzongri and Hee Burmiok.

Yes Sir.
Frankly speaking it is such a place from where you can view the divine beauty of Kanchenjunga and other range of the Himalayas very closely.
The view of Kanchenjunga from Pelling is unparallel.
Moreover the beauty is speechless when the Kanchenjunga is covered with snow.

posted this place as some of my friends and acquaintances visited this place quite often and shared their experience, if you visit Pelling you will experience something different which is not present either in Darjeeling or in Gangtok.
Detrain either at Shiliguri(SGUJ) or at NJP.
Take a Sumo/Jeep from there, from Shiliguri it is 135 kms, from NJP it is 139 kms.
Bus service is also there from both SGUJ and NJP to Pelling.
The entire route either from Shiliguri or from NJP to Pelling is decorated with everlasting sweet greenaries and natural beauties. Moreover Pelling is not so conjested like Darjeeling or Gangtok. It is a very quiet place full with natural beauties of The Himalayas and some marvellous waterfalls.
If possible, please make a trip to this place.
For more details regarding Pelling please visit the following Website "Go Pelling" of Pelling Tourism Development Association

You can find every information regarding Pelling in an elaborated and detailed manner from the website "Go Pelling" of Pelling Tourism Development Association, whose link is given above.

This blog undoubtedly contains "Treasure" for the "Lovers of Nature".
It describes a "Hill Station" which has a plethora of divine beauties, which makes it different from it's couterparts but not so common in general.
