Surrounded by tall pine trees all around, Enchey Monastery is believed to be constructed on a land blessed by Lama Druptob Karpo (a tantric master). The monastery is highly revered and inside the monastery you can see some shells that are considered auspicious Buddhist symbols. Listed among the most important temples to visit in Sikkim is Ganesh Tok, at an altitude up to 6500 ft. The main deity presiding inside the temple is of Lord Ganesha.

Settled at an altitude up to 12, 400ft, Tsomgo Lake is one of the popular tourist spots in Sikkim. Locals here claim that in earlier times, the color of the lake was studied by Lamas in order to predict the future. The water of the lake derives from melting of snow from mountains. Usually, the lake is covered with snow for most of the year. To enjoy the serenity, indulge in Yak ride or mule ride along the lake.
