Trip to Darjeeling- Queen of Hills
I have Been to Darjeeling atleast 3 to 4 times and each time this Place had so Much to Offer, so I decided must share my Local Experiences that I had in this beautiful Queen of Hills- Darjeeling
Darjeeling is World famous for 'Darjeeling Tea'and also the 'Toy Train' . Ghum Station and Himalayan Railway is the Highest Altitude Station in India
So Earlier I had been to the Famous places in Darjeeling - Batasia Loop and the Colorful Markets around it .
The Loop Point is Actually Famous as the Darjeeling Toy Train [UNESCO World Heritage Site] Takes a turn from here so the View Point from here and the Train Loop has made this Place a Must-Visit.
The Markets are Colorful and people are really simple and humble in this Place . They give you a warm welcome.
Next I would Like to Highlight my Cable Car Experince very different from anywhere else in the World as here you see beautiful sweeping Views of Tea Gardens and Clouds floating around you during the Cable Car Ride. So it is a Must-Try

Breath-Taking Views of Tea Gardens
Another beautiful Place is the Botanical Garden . We went there but due to sudden Rainfall couldn't see it from Inside.
The Darjeeling Mall where the Clock Tower [ Famous Monument since British Days] is there also has plenty of Places to Eat as well as way to Chowrasta
One Such Place is Keventers [ Good Place for Breakfast]
