What to do and see in Kalimpong, West Bengal: The Best Things to do

September 18, 2021 Harland Bartelt

Kalimpong is a bustling bazaar town set among the rolling foothills and deep valleys of the Himalayas. Kalimpong has become an important tourist destination owing to its temperate climate and proximity to popular tourist locations in the region. It is famous for its flower market, especially the wide array of orchids. Other attractions include Buddhist monasteries including the Zang Dhok Palri Phodang - known for its rare Tibetan Buddhist scriptures, churches, an excellent private library for the study of Tibetan and Himalayan language and culture. Kalimpong is home to Karmapa Trinley Thaye Dorje - 17th Karmapa. Kalimpong is also known for its traditional handicrafts.Although not many travellers bother to visit Kalimpong, there's enough here to keep you occupied for a couple of days, and for the energetic there's some good trekking and river-rafting in the river Teesta.

This golf course offers some excellent view of the mighty Himalayas. Under the control of army, this is one of the highest golf courses in the country. It also has a dosa point (open to everyone), where you can enjoy some south indian dishes and click photos with golf course in the backdrop.

Reviewed By JharnaS10 - Mumbai, India

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!!

Deolo Hill

Reviewed By stantp1916 - Farakka, India

A very beautiful hilltop view point in Kalimpong. Since we went in monsoon it was entirely covered with fog and mist. It felt wonderful though, as if we were walking amid the clouds. There is a beautiful park with playground for kids, horse riding, and a couple of view points from where you can look over Teesta river and enjoy the serenity. There is a guesthouse here as well which can be booked through WBTDC website.
