Tucked away in the lap of the Eastern Himalayas, Sikkim is one of India’s most serene and soulful destinations. Snow-capped peaks, fluttering prayer flags, peaceful monasteries, alpine lakes, and warm-hearted locals — Sikkim feels less like a tourist place and more like a spiritual retreat.
If you’re looking for a destination that offers natural beauty, calm, adventure, and culture all in one, Sikkim quietly calls your name.
At Iris Global Vacations & Events, we curate Sikkim journeys that are slow, meaningful, and deeply refreshing — perfect for leisure travelers, families, and small corporate retreats.
🏔️ Top Places to Visit in Sikkim
🏙️ Gangtok – The Heart of Sikkim
Gangtok is a charming hill town that blends modern cafés with Buddhist culture.
Don’t miss:
- MG Marg – a clean, lively pedestrian street
- Rumtek Monastery – spiritual and serene
- Tashi View Point – for stunning sunrise views
Gangtok is also the base for most Sikkim adventures.
❄️ Tsomgo Lake (Changu Lake)
Located at over 12,000 feet, Tsomgo Lake is a glacial lake surrounded by snow-clad mountains. The water changes colors with the sky, creating a magical atmosphere — especially in winter when the lake freezes.

Once part of the ancient Silk Route, Nathula Pass connects India with Tibet and offers breathtaking Himalayan views. Standing here feels surreal — surrounded by snow, silence, and history.

Often called Sikkim’s most beautiful valley, Yumthang blooms with colorful flowers in spring and turns into a snowy wonderland in winter.
It’s peaceful, untouched, and incredibly photogenic.

Sikkim’s Buddhist roots are deeply felt across the state.
