A Land- where heaven touches the earth, the ambience
creators mystery, landscape dominated by elements,
silence can be observed, vision tends to travel beyond
the horizon, soul starts meditating-unknowingly, mind
gets rejuvenated and a land that makes you bow.
Yuksom is the gateway to Shangri-La lies in the west
lies in the west district of Sikkim cradled in the lap
of Mt. Khanchendzonga the 3rd highest mountain in the
world & revered by the Sikkimese as the guardian deity.
Yuksom literally Means "Three lamas". Historically in
the year 1642 AD the first king of Sikkim Phuntsok
Namgyal was consecrated here in the very place where the
majestic Norbughang Stupa stand today.
Yuksom also serves as the starting point for the more
daring adventures to trek to the valley of flowers
"Dzongri" at 14,000 ft. & further to Goechala Pass at
17,000 ft.
