Darjeeling: Darling in the world of mist

If you haven't and want to experience this magic, then get ready to respond to the call of Darjeeling, a hill station on top of West Bengal, which has been a darling to every person who has visited the place.

This moment it might be bright and sunny with the Kanchenjunga offering its crystal clear view and the next moment it might cover itself with a blanket of cloud. Just imagine, your 'Love' walking towards you piercing through the wall of mist! Can there be anything more romantic than these?

To add to your romance, there is the Mall, a flat plaza at the end of a steep road. Once you reach there, Darjeeling will embrace you completely with its stunning scenic beauty.

On a clear day, you can get a grand view of the Kanchenjunga. You can simply sit here or go for a gentle stroll on the road that leads to a viewpoint behind the Mall. As you start approaching towards Mall from the jeep stand a signboard hanging from a building on the left side of the road will surely attract you. It’s the Keventers, without which Darjeeling is incomplete. Don’t miss the charm of having hot chocolate and snacks on its open terrace from where Kanchenjunga looks like a crystal crown on the head of the beautiful green valley. After completing the coffee session, you can start walking towards Mall again though shops full of exciting items, especially woolens and electronic goods will surely lengthen your journey. You may opt for a gentle horse ride at the Mall and give yourself and your ‘love’ a royal moment.
