From amid the gorgeous flowers, and the birds and the bees, you live for a short while under the benevolent gaze of the “Sleeping Buddha”, as the locals think of the Kanchendzonga range,  best seen in its stunning grandeur at sunrise.
Zemu Glacier is the largest glacier in the Eastern Himalaya. It is about 26 kilometers in length and is located at the base of Kangchenjunga in the Himalayan region of Sikkim, India. The Zemu Glacier drains the east side of Kanchenjunga, the world’s third-highest mountain
