HAVE YOU TRIED VISITING DARJEELING & GANGTOK DURING MONSOON?

A narrative has so long been set in our mind as October till March as the best time to visit Hill stations might change if you fancy your chance to explore the destinations graved at the foothills of the Himalayas during the season of monsoon. The gentle deluge soaking the land evenly spreading the essence of earthy scent is a different glimpse altogether that most travellers tend to miss while trying to catch the rush of spring, summer, and months after autumn.

The rhythm of drizzles when it collides with the surface not just leaves the land with an inalienable joy but the pleasant tune fills the ear with a distinct euphoria of music played solely by nature to amuse the locals. The spree of cascading waterfalls making its way to the mouth of rivers bending and breaking through the gorge has a distinct roaring sound that can only be felt if you plan a visit to hill stations during the season of monsoon.
