Hello ๐everyone, how are you all? I hope you all are doing well. Today I'm going share my another amazing journey in a beautiful city near the Kanchenjunga mountain ranges โฐ and also a world heritage tea lands. So let begin a journey with me in.
Beautiful Kanchenjunga ranges and Darjeeling city view, India ๐ฎ๐ณ from Naya Basti view point ๐.
I took a flight โ๏ธ from Dhaka Shahjalal international airport in the morning to Kolkata at 11.30 am. And I pre-booked my hotel ๐จ and vehicles through a local travel agency.
Ready of take off
From Kolkata I took another afternoon flight โ๏ธ from from Kolkata to reach Darjeeling city. It took me almost 1 hour and 15 minutes. From there, the agency provided me a car ๐ to take me the hotel ๐จ. I visited there in mid October ๐.
The zigzag road in the mountains โฐ๐. I was enjoying the beautiful scenery and cloudy weather ๐. This route is also used to go to Sikkim ๐.
The Darjeeling city view. It is an old city and a tea heaven ๐ต . I found lots of tea shops and antique shops here. People here woke up very early in the morning ๐ and hard working ๐ช.
I visited a tea ๐ต museum here. There are many variations of tea according to the plantation and picking season. You can buy your teas here and also can drink as much as tea ๐ต as a sample test for free ๐.
Here some tea making accessories I found it amazing and took some photos ๐ท.
The sample tea collection ๐ต that I tested ๐
I'm not a tea lover but I was mesmerised by the explanation of the guide. So I decided to check. Now it is time to test their authentic tea๐ต.There was a menu ๐ who wants to buy. And I bought 2 types tea๐ต for test. One was first flush tea and the other was rose tea.It cost me around $6.
Let's talk about some art in Darjeeling city. There are also many good curating shops here. And you can also adjust the price๐!!
The famous Durga puja ( a female hindu powerful Goddess) in Darjeeling city, west Bengal. It is quite popular in West Bengal like Kolkata.
Plain rice, unknown local wild grown vegetables, lentil soup, a rice pudding, handmade sauce, spicy mashed potatoes ๐ฅ and rice fritters.
Fried rice cake and spicy dry potato curry .
Because of the previous journey and current journey I was quite exhausted and hungry. So I found a nearby restaurant and ordered their local vegetarian thali (mixed platter). It has a completely different taste from any other Indian cuisine. But super delicious ๐.
It was almost night. After finishing my meal I checked into my hotel and went to sleep. That is the end for today. I hope you liked my journey in Darjeeling city. See you soon ๐ with another adventure. Until then bye ๐๐ด. Lots of love โค
