Festival of Lights in the Hills

Being in Darjeeling during the festive days offers a unique experience of tradition.

- Debjani Aich

The simplicity of the life of the locals and their warmth will transcend you into a world of unblemished happiness.

The golden sunshine retreats slowly as darkness prevails. All the shades of the sundown dissolve into a stygian blackness. Tiny lights adorn the mountain slope like a diamond necklace, setting the perfect backdrop for the angels of the night to descend. The queen of the hills is all decked up to greet you to an exotic world that stays forever young, ready to be explored, all over again.

The hill station, sprawled under the mighty summits flaunting their golden crowns at the daybreak and draping an alabaster whiteness as the day progresses, the people, their simple living, the chilly breeze, the undulating walkways, and everything there brew up strange chemistry that makes you feel more and more in love with life and filled with happiness and joy.
