Nathu La Pass

The Nathu La Pass encapsulates Sikkim’s natural beauty. The strategically-important mountain pass located at nearly 14,200ft above median sea level used to be part of the ancient Silk Road. On a day when the area is not surrounded by mist, one can view the winding trail where traders from Tibet and India would use mules to transport goods across the border. Nathu La Pass is one of the places where geography has played a vital role in shaping its history. If you’re planning a trip to Sikkim, make sure you try and visit this iconic spot for its arresting mountain-scape and rare flora and fauna.
