magnificent kalimpong
| Overview of the destinationKalimpong is a small town situated at just 3 hrs drive from Siliguri. A town which is not at much height like Darjeeling & Gangtok Food, sight-seeing and shopping Well, we stayed at Hotel Silver Oaks and the experience was satisfactory. For pure vegetarian food Hotel Kailash was our favourite destination and as far Activities & things to do Well, nothing special except lazing. Kalimpong has very few places worth watching where my favourites were Deolo Hill, Hanuman Temple and Mangal dham ashram. Especially Travel tips, How to reach, travel warnings etc. Well, we went in June month when rain has started but no need to take even light woollen in summers as you may need fans | Arin Paul, Kolkata | 28th March 2007
