Sikkim Darjeeling Educational Tour

Duration: 6 Days | PhotosDownload

Beautiful Sikkim is near about 200 monasteries or Gompas belonging to the Nyingma and Kagyu orders that have not only been influencing the cultural heritage and lifestyle of the people but also demonstrate the ancient rituals in practice. Devoted Lamas robed in red, chant ancient mantras to the rhythm of drums and trumpets while soft lights flicker from decorative lamps placed before statues of the great Guru Padmasambhava.

Feel the peace and quiet of being one with nature and close to the almighty as sacred words mingle with the whirring prayer wheels. The Gompas are adorned with life-like frescoes of hoary Buddhist legends, rare silk, and brocade Thangkas. Also preserved here, are ancient Tibetan manuscripts, exquisitely carved woodwork and icons of silver and gold.
