Teesta River Sikkim is one of the most famous hill-station with its vivid scenic beauty and versatile natural components. Snow-cladded cliffs to crystal-clear river water, the eye-soothing view makes this tiny state as one of the most famous tourist destinations of India. This is the second smallest state after Goa. The fastest way to reach Sikkim is to hire a car from Bag Dogra Airport. If it seems a bit costly then one may go Siliguri Via train then Bus to Gangtok From SNT Bus Terminus. It will take near about 4 - 5 Hours. The experience of spending days in this small valley amid low hills and lakes will be a lifetime memory. Gangtok is the capital of the state.

After spending 2 days there I was so keen to explore the nearby

Sound: The power towards infinity

It was 8pm in Melbourne, and in an opera house, Jack and Sophia, along with the ballroom full of audiences, were shattered by the piercing sound of the opera singer. Sophia went for the first time to the opera, and the terrible shrill voice of the lady perhaps reached up to 100 decibels, so that the wine glasses in the ballroom gradually turned into pieces. Well, that might be an instance, but I must tell you that the power of sound is beyond imagination. Tan Sen invited Monsoon along with Malhaar Rag.
