Sikkim, territory of India, sifted through in the northeastern piece of the nation, in the eastern Himalayas. It is maybe the most second state in India. Sikkim is united by the Tibet Autonomous Region of China toward the north and upper east, by Bhutan toward the southeast, by the Indian area of West Bengal toward the south, and by Nepal toward the west. The capital is Gangtok, in the southeastern piece of the state.

Long a sovereign political part, Sikkim changed into a protectorate of India in 1950 and an Indian state in 1975. Its little size in any case, Sikkim is of befuddling political and key hugeness for India considering its zone along a couple of general cutoff communities. District 2,740 square miles (7,096 square km).

Sikkim is a bowl associated with three sides by abrupt mountain dividers. There is immaterial bog, and the social occasion in help is mind blowing. Inside a stretch of about 50 miles (80 km), the land ascends from a height of around 750 feet (225 meters) in the Tista River valley to basically 28,200 feet (8,600 meters) at Kanchenjunga, India's most essential peak and the world's third most crucial mountain. The Singalila Range confines Sikkim from Nepal in the west, while the Dongkya Range diagrams the edges with the Tibet Autonomous Region of China toward the east. A couple goes over this range bear the cost of essential access to the Chumbi valley in Tibet and, past the valley, to the Tibetan capital of Lhasa.
