Luxury Resort Tinchuley- A hidden gem in an eco-tourism destination

North Bengal is a treasure trove of unexplored destinations and quiet settlements. Tinchuley in Takdah is one of those calm and serene Himalayan hamlets. The place is surrounded by tea gardens and mountain streamlets.

It is a picture-perfect offbeat destination for those who want to enjoy the company of nature with the goal to rejuvenate the self. The name Tinchuley comes from ‘Chula’ or Oven. It is aptly named to describe the three (tin) prominent hilltops in the shape of ovens.

The vast expanse from Kanchenjungha from here will enchant you. Plan your trip here around winter to visit the Orange orchards and try them with permission. The warm hospitality of the local people is one of the most positive things about this place.

Inside this sleepy hamlet, Luxury Resort Tinchuley is the perfect place for a tranquil stay. Very few people know about this destination, so there is not often a very high crowd.
