Tiger Hill swathing it in a warm pinkish hue. As the sun climbs up the horizon,
gradually the colors change into a vibrant orange. While on a visit to the Tiger
Hill the visitors can take a tour of the Senchel Sanctuary and the Senchel Lake,

peaks of the Mount Kanchenjunga. The spectacular view of the mountain takes
the visitors to the world of beauty and serenity. Atop the Observatory Hill,
the Mahakal temple, another one of the major Tourist Attractions in Darjeeling
is situated. The Mahakal is the manifestation of Lord Shiva. The place is decorated
with flags of various colors. These flags are used to pray in the shrine.
Apart from these there are several monasteries which are counted among the
places to go for Sightseeing in Darjeeling. The prime focus of the Dali Monastery
at Darjeeling is to explore and preserve the age old Tibetan culture and tradition.
