Rinchenpong is a well-known tourist spot in West Sikkim and also a historical place. The historical battle happened between the force of the Chogyal( its means king)of Sikkim and British forces.
Rinchenpong is a beautiful place view of the mountain ranges seen from my homestay. A beautiful sunrise also from my homestay rooftop.
Rinchenpong has two oldest monasteries, one is the Rinnchenpong monastery and another one is the Reesum monastery. Rinchenpong is the very oldest monastery in Sikkim.
Even also said Nobel laureate, Rabindranath Tagore, once visited this place and wrote a poem for Gitanjali.

After vising two old monasteries, I just arrived at Azing's model farm. The organic model farm is situated in West Sikkim. Where cultivated different types of fruits like grapes, peaches, pineapples, strawberries, and many more fruits.
The Azing's Model Farm |
Grapes |
It is worth to quick visit and I want to buy some organic honey, pickles, and fruit wine. The model farm is also surrounded by hanging hives, duck pens, a bunch of flowers, and descending fruit trees. The Azing's Model farm is beautiful but you must be prepared for 270 steps.
Fruits wine |
Some tourists succeded the staircase and bought fruits wine and organic honey.
After visiting two old monasteries and model farms I came back to my homestay.
