Day 2:
-
This morning transfer to the domestic airport to board flight
for Bagdogra. The flight to Bagdogra runs parallel to the
Himalayas and if the weather is clear, we have views of all of
the Himalayan giants; including Nanda Devi and
Panch Chuli, and then all of the Nepalese 8000 meter peaks; Dhaulagiri, the
Annapurnas and Manaslu, Cho Oyu, Everest, Makalu and then the massive
bulk of Kangchenjunga, just as we come in to land. From Bagdogra, it is a
four-hour drive to Darjeeling. At first, drive through flat rice fields and Assam
tea plantations, before the road starts to climb into the foothills of the
Himalaya. Darjeeling, built on top of a ridge, faces the Himalaya and is a
popular tourist destination for Westerners and Bengalis alike. The British
originally acquired the thickly forested land in 1833, which introduced tea
growing and promoted the settlement as a Health Resort. 150 years on,
Darjeeling is now a thriving and busy town but retains links to its past.
