Sikkim

Ancient kingdom of the Oriental Himalayas, located on the border of Nepal, Tibet and Bhutan, Sikkim is one of the Himalayan world´s jewels. Dominated by the Kanchenjunga (the third highest peak in the world), deep valleys, striated with terraces that are cultivated or covered with lush vegetation where rhododendrons mingle with wild orchids, are boxed between snow-clad peaks. Though there is a large Hindu population, it is Buddhism that has bestowed the best of its architectural structures like the Rumtek and Pemayangtse monasteries.
