Inside Lingthem Lyang Home Stay

It is modest, but clean, comfortable, and overlooking the serene range of the Himalayas. Though photographs tell only half of the story, here are a few of the clicks that may give some ideas about how it looks and feels from the rooms at the home stay. This is right when you enter the premises of the homestay. You are greeted by our humility and salutation, while the mountainous surrounding welcomes you too. As you walk up, you notice the wooden exteriors with tender windows opening on the hills smiling and inviting you for an intimate stay. As you step inside your room, you notice the soft cushions, clean bed-spread, all that is needed, available inside the room, warm enough in the effect of wooded ceiling, floor, and window seals. and while you you are enjoying your stay in your room while looking at the green mountains through your windows, you feel like visiting our kitchen, another exquisite struct...

An image of the front of the monastery by our guest Tanmay Sen who visited us from Midnapore  The Buddhist monastery in the village Lingthem is over hundred year old and a pleasant thirty minutes walk across the greenery of the mountain from the Lingthem Lyang Home stay. Our guests never fail to undertake this walk to the monastery, and come back with a lifetime experience of peace, serenity and fulfillment. A slow and steady walk unfolds gems of scene, sound, and sweet memories. One of the most immediate benefit is that it fills your lungs with purest of oxygen, massages your muscles, and makes you much stronger and sturdier. our guests dev and prabuddh, on the monastery trail, whistling a song in chorus with chirping birds, gushing streams, and rustling trees Our guest from Germany Johanna and her father loved to take note of several places on the way to the monastery.

  My husband and I were the first guests of the newly opened Lingthem Lyang Homestay. We were interested in exploring an off the beaten path destination of North Sikkim and were recommended to check out Dzongu Valley by BB Line Tours in Gangtok. They recommended this homestay and after a long and bumpy journey, we finally made it. We greatly enjoyed our stay with Sangdup and his lovely family. Sangdup is a wealth of information on the Lepcha community, Dzongu Valley, and North Sikkim. Both Sangdup and his family were amazing, going out of their way to make sure we completely enjoyed our stay. During our stay, we enjoyed challenging hikes in the countryside. The views of the mountains and hills are stunning. Linda Wu and Steven Buik Walser, Lovers of Himalayas from Washington D.C, USA
