Latpanchar is a small village nestled at Sittong. Sittong is not just a destination it’s an experience for a travelers. Nestled in the lush greenery of North Bengal, Sittong is known for its Orange Gardens but it’s real charm lies in its untouched scenic beauty, warm people, and peaceful lifestyle.
The soul of Sittong lives in its hills mist-laced mornings, chirping birds, and forest trails. The view from Ahaldara View Point is mesmerizing. Watching the sun rise over the Kanchenjunga range feels like witnessing magic unfold.
The village culture is simple yet rich. Lepcha and Nepali traditions blend into everyday life, from food to folk songs. Unknown to many, this region was once part of ancient trade routes, and stories of monks passing through still echo in the hills.
Don’t miss Namthing Pokhri, a hidden lake that comes alive in the monsoon, or the Latpanchar Monastery, also known as Latpanchar Mahni Choikhorling Gompa, offering peace and prayer in equal measure.
Sittong is where time gently pauses.
