Riding the Toy Train of Darjeeling Himalayan Railways (DHR) has always remained a coveted experience to the tourists. The Toy Train has been accorded the UNESCO World Heritage status, and that’s for something special. Operating on narrow gauge tracks since 1880s and providing an important transport link to various parts of Darjeeling hills and lower plains, the Toy Train is still unmatched when it comes to absorbing magnificent beauty of the mountains. Later as we know that Any visit to Darjeeling would be incomplete without going to a tea estate, so visit the Happy Valley Tea Estate. The estate offer visitors a glimpse of the fascinating process of manufacturing tea at a place that was established way back in 1854.
