It’s no mytho-God temple but a young soldier who gave his life for the country is worshipped.
it’s said that the spirit of that soldier still pays a visit there.
This place is maintained solely by the Indian Army.
With Patriotic sounds playing at full throttle, Indian flag being hoisted high among the mountains and Indian army all around, this place gives you goosebumps.
“Kandhon se milte hain kandhe…”, “Mera rang de basanti chola…”
A 3 hr ride from Changu lake taxi stand, Gangtok
Sharing cab would cost INR 500 incl visit to Changu lake. If you are a solo traveller, you’ll be adjusted in the back of the SUV 😦
You get jackets and snow boots on rent on the way at INR 50-100
Hot Maggi, home cooked food, tea and bread omlette readily available on the way.
Tour is to be pre booked via any agency in Gangtok. Just roam around in the main market in Gangtok and you will find any agency ready to take your bookings.
It takes an entire day to visit both Changu lake and Baba Mandir.
It’s snowfall in May season
