historical places

Darjeeling is very well known in the world for its tea plantation but the hill station is also home to a number of historical landmarks and heritage buildings which were left behind by the British colonial administration. Some of the famous heritage places are:

• Darjeeling Old Cemetery (It is known as the resting place of many British settlers and the one who is said to be the discoverer of Darjeeling)
• The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway (Also known as the DHR or the Toy Train that runs between New Jalpaiguri and Darjeeling)
