Traveling in nature can be an amazing gift to ourselves. Leaving aside all the daily chores for a while, you can breathe in the fresh air in your lungs. When you travel to the hills, all the burden of your routine-bound life washes away. If you are a true traveler, you will be restless after a few months at home and workplace. For that reason, you may try to explore new destinations, which are lesser-traveled ones. Pelling is one such destination, located in Sikkim. Compared to the famous hill stations nearby, the rush of travelers is not much here. However, Lamthang offers a majestic view of Kanchenjunga from here when the sky is clear.
Our property here, the Lamthang Eco Village Resort, is unique in its location and view. It is a few kilometers away from the proper Pelling town. For this reason, it retains its serenity. You can enjoy nature in its full glory here, without being bothered by the crowd. You will be welcomed in the property, with wooden walls in the rooms and comfy beds. The view from the balcony of the rooms is absolutely stunning. You do not need to go out to some special point to see the sunrise when you stay here. In the morning, you can see an amazing view of the snow-clad mountain along with the rising sun from the windows of the room. Also, the quality of the food here and the smiling service of the efficient staff members is worth a mention. As the property is located in a remote place, it is perfect for you if you long for solitude. Else, come here with a group of friends and family, for an amazing service and a great overall experience.
