Sikkim is one of India’s most scenic states and is tucked away in the lap of the formidable Himalayan range. The state is home to Kangchenjunga, the world’s third highest mountain.

However, the busy city life can lead one to take such beautiful sights for granted. Staycations offer the perfect solution to this situation. Locals can take a trip to any of the resorts and accommodations perched along the Himalayas’ foothills for a relaxing holiday. While here, you can stay in your room and rest all day long, go for a small hike with your family, or visit a nearby monastery.
