Sikkim Travel
Sikkim is a small
region wedged in between the eastern border of Nepal and Bhutan. Until India
annexed it in 1975 it was an independent kingdom. This move was undoubtedly
motivated by India's fear of the growing Chinese influence in the Himalayas.
Sikkim is culturally linked to its neighbors Nepal and Bhutan, and Tibet to the
north. Because of its remoteness it does have a specific flavor of its own.

About Gangtok (Capital of Sikkim)
The Capital
and principal town of Sikkim is a growing resort full of taxis, tourists and
hotels. Spread on a ridge at 1870m, it has four to five roads running almost
parallel to each other. It used to be a typical beautiful Himalayan town a few
years ago. Now it is being spoiled by traders and builders.
