Lachen, our first stop, is a tiny village surrounded by stunning green mountains with snow-white peaks which is located on the banks of a jumpy Lachen river. A drive of a few hours from here brings us to Gurudongmar Lake, a sacred lake believed to embody several mythical creatures and holy water blessed by the Gods.
Lachung, located towards the Tibetan border that adds more charm to the 7 Day Sikkim Tour, is another similar village but with a strikingly different geography. Its sleepy atmosphere and dry terrain are in stark contrast to the meadow-filled valley of Yumthang where Himalayan flowers can be found from Spring to Autumn. Yumthang is home to a medicinal hot water spring bathing which can rejuvenate you, both body and soul.
