S2E4 Yuksom: A quaint gateway to Sikkim

We saved the most beautiful pocket of Sikkim as our last episode in Sikkim Series. Yuksom is the first capital of Sikkim and is the house to some of the oldest monasteries (as old as 1701) in the state. This untouched pristine village is also the starting point of the famous Kanjenjunga Trek.

1. Dubdi Monastery: Established in 1701, it is the oldest monastery in Sikkim and is located on
the top of a hill which is about an hour's trek from Yuksom.
2. Karthok Lake & Monastery: Kartok flaunts its smooth red structure dotted with golden, yellow
outlines and Tibetan design. This monastery is a popular pilgrimage destination in Yuksom
adorned by colourful prayer flags and flanked by the beautiful Lake Kartok. 
3. Yuksom Helipad: One of the very random roads took us straight to this helipad. Couldnt have found a better place to get the magnificent view of this village.
