The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway, also known as ‘Toy Train’, links New Jalpaigudi to Darjeeling. It passes through Ghoom at an elevation of about 2258 meters. The wonderful design of this train comprises six zigzag reverses. The Toy Train is no more a vital means of transportation; however, it has continued to exist because of its exclusive historical significance and tourist appeal.
2. Himalayan Mountaineering Institute And Zoological Park :
The Himalayan Mountaineering Institute was established by Tenzing Norgay, the sherpa who, along with Sir Edmund Hillary, reached the summit of Mount Everest. The campus has a memorial for him, and it also houses a museum that showcases mountaineering equipment. These include the ones that Tenzing Norgay used. The Mountaineering Institute also has a small zoological park that houses various species of Himalayan animals.
3. Japanese Peace Pagoda & Buddhist temple :
Peace Pagoda is a well-known Buddhist temple and monastery which is set in the beautiful town, Darjeeling. The temple was built under the supervision of Nichidatsu Fujii who was a Buddhist monk from Japan and who also advocated the Nipponzan-Myo-ho-ji Buddhist Order. This revered place is considered a symbol of religion and peace.

The small, exotic attraction of Observatory Hill is located near the Chowrasta Square in the dreamy town of Darjeeling. The site was originally the location of the important Dorje Ling Monastery, upon which the town got its name. However, now it is primarily accessed due to a small temple of Mahakal in a cave that is revered by both Budhhists and Hindus. The summit of hill is hued in the whirl of colorful flags and is noticeable with shrines and a peaceful ringing of devotional bells.
8. Rock Garden :
The Rock Garden at Chunnu Summer Falls and Ganga Maya Park are recently added tourist attractions in the hilly town of Darjeeling in the state of West Bengal, India.
