A 7-spot Ladybird in a morning garden!
Jorpokhri (the twin lakes) is a beautiful Himalayan nature reserve of untouched natural beauty at an altitude of 7,400 ft on a hilltop in Darjeeling district. There is a lovely forest around full of dhupi and pines. The lakes and the view of Mt. Kanchenjunga through the pine forest in clear weather are the main attractions.
In Jorpokhri one can stay in the bungalows by the DGHC which has to be booked from Kolkata, Darjeeling or Siliguri (No Spot Booking). If you are looking for a break from the modernized travel destinations and want to spend few leisurely days in the vast natural canvas thrown open before you, Jorpokhri is the best bet.
