Why March here
Buddha Park, monastery views and the gentlest rhythm in south Sikkim.
Ravangla sits on the south-Sikkim ridge at about 7,000ft: the Buddha Park with its 130ft statue, Ralang monasteries down the road, and tea-and-temple days that never hurry. Pang Lhabsol dances here are among the state’s most striking.
