Darjeeling Botanical Gardens

flowers

Like most things in Darjeeling it wasn't easy to find the botanical gardens, despite their size. After asking directions several times and following a few steep alleyways we eventually got there. Part of the way was beside s stream doubled as a sewer. Also like most things on Darjeeling the gardens looked like they had seen better days. There weren't any tourists, just some young people hanging out in the park.

But it was nice to get away from the crowds and crazy traffic. There were lots of kinds of trees and plants. The orchid house was good although there were only a few kinds flowering.
