Batasia Loop

A Beautifully designed railway twirl "Batasia Loop" is an airy space with a 360° view of the Hill station, Darjeeling town and one of the most favourite places for tourists who venture here. Darjeeling's Heritage Toy Trains both steam engine and diesel engines are going to turn your gaze at them while roaming around that area. Local communities came here to sale their locally made products such as Darjeeling shawls, hand made woolen caps, sweaters, little souvenirs and many more. In the month of November Darjeeling blossoms in a whole new way with cumulus white clouds drifting away in the blue sky above you. Here you find a monument, a statue of a soldier paying homage and an endearingly gorgious flower garden. The whistles of the engines will surprise your mind and sight from time to time. Few under shed benches are placed, if you feel tired you can have a sit at there. You can capture some selfies with the beautifully crafted design "I ❤️ Darjeeling". Tickets for entering this place : 10/- rurees per person.
