 A ) MG Market Gangtok

This place is a must visit because without it a visit to Gangtok is incomplete. 'Marg' in Hindi means 'Road'. So, MG Marg means MG Road ... all Indians will know that always an important road (if not the most important road) in any city or township in India would be named as Mahatma Gandhi Road or MG Road. Gangtok is no exception and this is the town center of the hill town

The road and the area around it have transformed over the years. It is now more like a long stretch of open mall or boulevard square where locals and tourists take leisure stroll or just sit and relax on one of the many benches laid along the middle and both sides of the road to soak in the ambience.

A part of the Eastern Himalaya, Sikkim is notable for its biodiversity, including alpine and subtropical climates, as well as being a host to Kangchenjunga, the highest peak in India and third highest on Earth. Sikkim's capital and largest city is Gangtok.

Tibetan carpet was essentially unknown in the West. During the 1960s, however, after the refugees had settled in nepal and parts of northern India, they began to rely on their traditional handicrafts, including handwoven carpets, as a source of income.
