The Jaldhaka River valley is undoubtedly a hidden treasure..The Jaldhaka river flows between India and Bhutan and visiting this place was an amazing experience.The greenery was captivating and the chirping of the innumerable birds made me feel the futility of the city life that we crave for.With no mobile network Jaldhaka river valley is the best place to unwind!!

A big beautiful monastery is located on this hill. We went during prayer time and it was so peaceful experience. From the topmost floor of the monastery bird's eye view of the small town of kalimpong is just wonderful. According to local guide it was called "durbin" meaning binocular hill. Nowadays it's called durbin. One of the best attractions of kalimpong located very close to the town. Must visit when in kalimpong
