Beautiful Kanchenjunga ranges and Darjeeling city view, India 🇮🇳 from Naya Basti view point 😀.

I took a flight ✈️ from Dhaka Shahjalal international airport in the morning to Kolkata at 11.30 am. And I pre-booked my hotel 🏨 and vehicles through a local travel agency.

From Kolkata I took another afternoon flight ✈️ from from Kolkata to reach Darjeeling city. It took me almost 1 hour and 15 minutes. From there, the agency provided me a car 🚗 to take me the hotel 🏨. I visited there in mid October 😀.

Fried rice cake and spicy dry potato curry .

Because of the previous journey and current journey I was quite exhausted and hungry. So I found a nearby restaurant and ordered their local vegetarian thali (mixed platter). It has a completely different taste from any other Indian cuisine. But super delicious 😋.
