Ravangla:
(6,800 ft.), saddles the ridge between Maenam Hill
(10,600 ft) & Tendong Hill (8,530 ft.). It is the
sub-divisional headquarter of South district & is
famous for the panoramic view of the snow peaks
especially of Mt. Narsing (19,170 ft. high). Just
above the town is the Tibetan Refugee Settlement
Camp, which houses the Kheunpheling Carpet Centre
where one can buy fine Tibetan style woolen carpets.
It is also a transit point for trekkers who wish to
go for a short trek to Maenam Hill, Tendong Hill &
Borong Hot Spring. A trek down to the sacred cave
‘Shar Chok Bephu” one of the four holiest caves in
Sikkim, would be a memorable experience. |
