This church is a must-visit place to experience utter peace and tranquility. It is located near the mall and holds many memories of the past that need to be explored. This place is so serene and calm that you will definitely like this place.

I must say that your trip to Darjeeling is incomplete if you are not visiting the tea estate. It is one of the oldest towns in the city and the beauty of this place is incomparable. I learned the process of tea making here and enjoyed it a lot here.

It is located above the Chowrasta square which is situated at a distance of 2km from the Darjeeling Railway Station.  There are many Hindu and Buddhist temples here. Believe me, it is one of the best tourist spots in Darjeeling.

Here you can spot several varieties of birds and butterflies found in the hills, and one can also find preserved remains of various mammals, insects, reptiles, and birds. This museum is located in the heart of the city.
