secrets of a holiday destination

Kanchanjungha

The unusually beautiful day at Gangtok began with the view of snowy peak of Kanchanjungha. On the other side of the window the dazzling peak of the snow clad mountain was glowing in the dustless morning. After spells of rain it was a stainless view of the entire hill station. The gleams were reflecting even from the foliage like galore of gold were spread all over the greenery. Sometimes it was the layers of drifting mist playing hide and seek and were suddenly hiding everything behind the cover. It was the beginning of a new episode of working day, in the capital city of Sikkim. Away from being a part of it, I was watching in laze, the busy movement of vehicles on the road and moving crowds towards their business and gaiety of holidaying tourists in colourful attire on the road.

Soon, I realized it was impossible to get confined in my room and the impetus compelled me to land on the road amidst the crowd of the morning. It was a usual picture of a smooth going day at Gangtok. Reached at the esplanade of Gangtok, known as M.G. Marg or Mahatma Gandhi Marg where an elegant picture of the hill capital could also be noticed. The place had been witnessed, to be persistently filled with well dressed and fashionable men and women. M.G. Marg has been nicely decorated with seasonal flowers, with visible impressions of tidiness and well maintenance, resplendent and discriminating. Vehicles were not allowed in the premises of the M.G. Marg; it was an exclusive property of the pedestrians. The abundant pictures spread in the premises in harlequin of gaiety some were occupied to bask or were in repose to enjoy the scenic beauty, posing for photographs, collecting souvenirs from the shops, some were heading for rope way trip on foot or for a local sightseeing trip of the city. Away from torrid climate it was very pleasing sunny day in the lap of Himalayas and it was ostentation of assured smooth holidaying.
