It doesn't make sense to visit this point as there is hardly anything unless you want yr kids to dress up in the unwashed smelly local attire and get photographed . More

We had a wonderful view of Mount Khanchendonza from here! Be aware that, on cloudy days , you will rarely see the highest peaks . We hired a taxi from the transportation center in the middle of Gangtok ( very reasonable) to take us up there. In retrospect, we should have kept it for our return , as most taxis... More

This is supposed to be a vantage point to view Kanchandzonga and other Himalayan peaks (Siniolchu, Kabru, Pandim, etc). However, we did not get a clear view on account of clouds, although thw eather in Gangtok was bright and sunny. The ideal time to visit Tashi view point is early morning. More

The view point is a bit away off the way and has a temple to visit close by with a magnificent view of the valley on one side. There is a restaurant to kill your hunger as one gets tired during the long trip. Other than some good photographs there is not much to be expected. More
