Workation in Gangtok: the essentials
Gangtok climbs a ridge at 1,650 m in the eastern Himalaya and has been the capital of Sikkim since 1894, first of a Himalayan kingdom and since 1975 of an Indian state. About 100,000 people live here, among them Bhutia, Lepcha and Gorkha communities. Pedestrianised MG Marg is the heart of town, and monasteries such as Enchey fill free days. Foreign visitors need a permit for Sikkim, with additional ones for areas further north. The main drawback is access: Bagdogra Airport is about 78 km away in a straight line, the road is far longer, and landslides often block it in the monsoon.
