As opposed to its haute neighbour Darjeeling, it is quite a humble hill station, the very reason that makes it a preferred one for those longing to be one with themselves away from the crowds.<\/p>\n<p>At an average elevation of 4,101 ft, the town lies in the Shivalik hills (lesser Himalayas) and offers glorious views of Mount Khangchendzonga, the third highest peak of the world. It used to be a gateway in trade between India and Tibet, across the Jelepla pass. Kalimpong once belonged to chogyals (kings) of Sikkim, and then passed into the hands of Bhutanese, then to the British, before finally becoming a part Independent India. Gompas, temples and churches all vouch for it being a pot pourri of cultures.<\/p>\n<p>In fashion similar to Thekkady (Kerala) that has a number of welcoming spice gardens, Kalimpong sports numerous nurseries with fascinating collections of orchids, gladioli and cactuses that are open to visitors. Unsurprisingly Kalimpong produces 80% of India\u2019s gladioli and the flower market contributes significantly to its economy. An endearing pastime here (bring your walking shoes) is to ramble, up hill and down dale. Further, for the more serious, there are plenty of opportunities for interesting treks, bird and butterfly watching, river rafting and mountain biking also.<\/p>\n<p>        <\/span><\/div>\n<p>                   <!-- Using the values of a repeater with a single group --><\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"TouristAttractions\" class=\"content_area\">\n<h2 class=\"content_area_head\">\n                           Kalimpong Tourist attractions<br \/>\n                       <\/h2>\n<div class=\"table-responsive\">\n<table class=\"table table-striped\">\n<tbody>\n<tr class=\"table-dark\">\n<th>Name (Suggested Time Required To See The Place)<\/th>\n<th>Description\t<\/th>\n<th>Entrance Charges (If Any) For Foreigner\t<\/th>\n<th>Close Day (If Any)<\/th>\n<th>Open \/ Close Time<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"content_table\">\n<td class=\"place_name\">Zong Dog Palri Fo-Brang Gompa\/ Durpin Gompa\n       <\/td>\n<td class=\"align-left description\">This is a very special monastery of Kalimpong.
