Once a mountain kingdom, Sikkim is a destination like no other. Exhibiting a religious harmony between Hinduism and Buddhism, Sikkim has its floors covered with Hindu shrines and Buddhist monasteries.

We had always heard about how the weather in Sikkim in November is more than pleasant. North Sikkim, Lachen, Lachung turn into a winter wonderland and that is exactly what we were hoping to experience on our little escapade. We had our Sikkim trip from Hyderabad to Bagdogra, and then a flight from there and all seven of us were extremely enthusiastic. TravelTriangle simply added to our excitement by ensuring we were being offered the best of services.
Weather In Sikkim In November
It was mainly because of the weather in Lachen in November and the weather in Lachung in November that we planned on paying a visit to Sikkim. The weather was extremely pleasant and made our overall experience wonderful.

The weather right after autumn was breezy, a little chilly, and comfortable enough for us to experience Sikkim to the fullest.

Hotels In Sikkim

The hospitable staff of these hotels welcomed us with arms wide open and the best of services. Hotel Green Tara was our favorite accommodation and stay option in Lachung. The food offered in these hotels was just another plus. Since we got all our meals at the hotel itself, we didn’t really feel the need to go out to any restaurants as the food served there was in itself drool-worthy.

Sikkim is all set to welcome the chilly winds in the month of November. There are certain things that one should definitely pack for their excursion as you don’t want any regrets once there.

This helps one in breathing better up at the hills which are at a higher altitude.
Personal Expenses Incurred In Sikkim
With our major expenses being already taking care of including the flights and the hotels, we didn’t really have that much of expenses. Mainly the money was spent on a little bit of shopping as we only got a chance to eat the food served by the hotel which was already paid for. It was seven of us and together we spent around INR 35,000/- personally.
