Rabindra Smriti Van is a small, peaceful park in Rinchenpong that honours Rabindranath Tagore, who is fondly remembered here as a visitor to the area. It sits beside the trail to Resum Monastery, so most people stop here on the way up.
Why stop here
It is a quiet place to rest, read the plaques and enjoy the forest before the climb. For Bengali travellers especially, it is a small and touching link between Sikkim and Gurudev.
