Yumthang, in the northern Sikkim, the rightfully
called the Valley of Flowers as in Flowering
season there blossoms vivid colours of variety
of Rhododendrons, chimals and blue poppies.
Yumthang is located on a flat valley and is near
the tree line, the surrounding mountains seems
to kiss the heavens. The journey from Lachung to
Yumthang has a very picturesque landscape and is
lined with Rhododendrons & 108 other types of
Orchids which bloom in different colours from
April to May. Though very close to capital,
going to Yumthang valley is like traveling back
in time- it is so remote and almost untouched by
vagaries of civilization. It is also well know
for the hot spring.
