Ganesh Tok

#Temple in Gangtok

Close to Tashi View point is Ganesh Tok, a temple of Lord Ganesha. It’s located at an altitude of 6,500 ft and at a hill adjacent to that of the huge TV Tower. Like Hanuman Tok, tourists come here not only to offer prayers to Ganesh, but also to soak in the views from the viewing lounge and the circular balcony around it.

You will need to climb a staircase to reach to the upper levels where the temple and viewing area are located. Midway along the staircase you will be required to take off your shoes. The temple itself is quite small. However next to is the enclosed viewing lounge with glass panels. The balcony around is even better for the views. You can see the Gangtok town, rolling hill and the snow capped mountains including Kanchenjunga.
