There’s something magical about Cherry Blossom season in South Sikkim — when the hills blush in pink and white, and every turn of the road feels like a frame from a dream.
The first blooms are expected to appear across South and East Sikkim, particularly around the Temi Tarku region, during the second and third weeks of November, depending on the weather.
Our little travel group, fondly called “SIKKIM DAIRY,” had one simple plan — to experience the beauty of South Sikkim during the Cherry Blossom bloom. Four friends, one destination, and countless memories waiting to unfold.
From the very first day, the trip felt special. The calm mountain breeze, cozy stays, and the warmth of the people made it a nice experience with nice stay — just as we had hoped.
Our favorite spot? Definitely Darap — a peaceful village that seemed untouched by time. The view from our Darap Homestay was pure magic, especially with Cherry Blossoms blooming all around. It wasn’t just about the flowers though — it was the hospitality, the local food, and the simplicity of village life that made Darap stand out.
We also explored Temi, famous for its tea gardens and picture-perfect views. The gentle slopes covered in tea bushes, with blossoms adding a pink hue to the landscape, felt straight out of a painting.
Luckily, the trip went smoothly — no major challenges, except for the occasional reminder to beware of leeches while walking through the moist forest trails!
If there’s one thing we learned, it’s that every corner of Sikkim has its own story — each destination is unique in its location, vibe, and rhythm.
So if you ever plan a trip to South Sikkim, go during the Cherry Blossom season. Wander through the villages, sip local tea, stay in a homestay, and let the mountains gift you a little peace and a lot of pink petals.
