Kangchenjunga Range from Mankhim - a photo on Flickriver

Kangchenjunga Range from Mankhim

            Mount Kangchenjunga (Khangchendzonga, 8534 mts), the third highest mountain in the world, revered by the Sikkimese as their protective deity!

Towering over the village of Dalapchand is the scenically beautiful hilltop destination known as Mankhim. Located near to the popular tourist hot spot known as Aritar, this pristine land mass offers tourists with a vantage point. The hilltop looms large over the Lampokhri Lake, giving sightseers a bedazzling view of its emerald green waters. Mankhim also provides onlookers with a spectacular view of Mt. Kanchenjungha. The panoramic spectacle of the mountains is interspersed with a monastery and a small temple aloft the hilltop, which make for a tranquil retreat.
