Local side scenes of Pelling

To cover the local side scenes of Pelling, 2 days will be enough. Apart from its natural beauty, the attractions in Pelling include Sanga-Choeling Monastery that is reachable after a casual walk through a steep hilly slope. Usually it takes nearly 1 hr to reach the monastery which is situated at the top of a small hill. On the way the whole pelling can be seen. But before going to Sanga-Choeling Monastery u can go to the new helipad ground. This two attractions fall in the same way. Behind the Helipad ground a beautiful view of Kanchanjangha is seen. This is a very nice position to click photos. If u reach the town pelling within noon time, then after doing lunch and having rest u can go out for the above 2 places at around 2.30pm. U'll get back to hotel within 5.30pm.

Only 2 places are left to see for the next day. 1. Rabdentshe and 2. Premeyangshe. Both these places are near to each other and the distance of these places from upper pelling is few kms. You can either go by bus/car or u can walk for nearly 40 mins to reach out there. On the way u’ll see several trees full of some unseen fruits.

Rabdentshe is the ancient capital of Sikkim. It is a big place where u’ll find the ancient constructions and garden full of various flowers. There is an entry gate beside the road and after getting in u’ll find a cottage and a small lake. Ahead of the lake u’ll find a path made of stone, towards the ancient capital. U have to walk atleast for 15 mins as because the path is very long. On the way u’ll find jungles in the two sides of the path. Walking alone in that path can be scary. It’s hard to find anyone in that area. After reaching the ancient capital, u’ll be seeing a map of the capital and on the way there will be several banners which indicates what further distance u’ve to walk. In the ancient capital, now a days some local people resides and there is a small playground where the local children plays. Sometimes many people come there for picnic. It’s a nice place for that. From here u can see the premeyangshe monastery. From one side of this place a huge view of mountains is seen which is very rare to see.

After Rabdentshe u’ll be going to Premeyangshe monastery which is approx 20 mins walking distance from rabdentshe. The road which ends at Premeyangshe, has very high slope. This is one of the big and popular monasteries of Sikkim. It has 2 floors inside and there are many things to be seen inside. Upto now the local side scenes of pelling has been covered up.
