After exploring a number of beautiful places in India, I have started considering every bit of rejuvenating nature as the source of my inspiration. I watch and admire crystal clear waterways, chirping of birds, pleasing greenery with dew drops and the divine morning prayers. As I made a wish to seek God in nature, luckily I got an opportunity to visit Gangtok on an family tour. This city of beauty, adventure, spirituality and relaxation has always been a favorite of all the travellers. Great and a memorable trip with Triplou.
