Pelling
Pelling is a small town in the district of West Sikkim, a beautifully located hill station at a height of 6800 ft initially covered with wild thick jungle providing hides and shelter to many indigenous wild animals of that period including Wildman.

Regular vehicles connect Pelling to the towns of Jorethang, Kalimpong and Namchi alongwith Gangtok. The nearest airport is Bagdogra . Pelling is mainly divided into three parts, the Upper Pelling, the Middle Pelling and the Lower Pelling. The main Hotels are mainly located at the Upper and Middle Pelling areas.
Most of the people of Pelling are Buddhists and speak the Sikkimese language. The other languages spoken are Nepali, Hindi, and English.
Pelling is famous for the majestic view of the magnificent Mount Kanchenjangha. On a clear day, the full fledged panoramic view of Mt.

Founded in 1705, this monastery belongs to the Nyingma-pa sect. The three-storied building of the monastery houses a good collection of wall paintings and sculptures. On the third floor of the monastery, there is a seven-tiered painted wooden model of the abode of Guru Rimpoche, complete with rainbows, angels and the whole panoply of Buddha and bodhisattva. In January/ February every year, a religious dance called 'Cham' is performed in Pemayangtse.

Built in 1697 the Sanga Cholling is one of the oldest monasteries in Sikkim. Sanga Cholling means 'the island of esoteric teaching'. This gompa is another of Lhatsun Chenpo's creations, and is highly venerated among the Nyingmapa. Gutted by fire, it has been rebuilt and houses some of the original clay statues. The monastery is the second oldest in Sikkim. Since the place can only be reached on foot, even during high tourist season, the monastery does not remain crowded. One can still enjoy the great views among tranquility even though Pelling has become a popular tourist destination with thousands of tourists visiting the place.
