GREEN VILLAGE HOMESTAY- Experience the Bliss of: Rural Sikkim, The Real Sikkim

Nestled at the northern frontier of South Sikkim, amidst the breathtaking embrace of Sikkim's natural wonders, lies Lingee Village – a place where the echoes of history blend seamlessly with the whispers of the wind. The village derives its name from 'Lik-ngee,' meaning 'Call there is,' an invitation echoing across the verdant landscape, drawing explorers and wanderers into its heart.

 Lingee Village stands as a geographical marvel, encircled by the artistry of nature. To the east, the mighty Teesta River, weaves its tale, while the Samdong East Sikkim graces one side, and the majestic Mount Maenam Range, Dareli, and Panch Pokhori create a natural boundary on the west. Towards the north, the village is separated by the meandering river Rungphap, a tributary of the Teesta, and to the south, Payong Village, also known as Poyong, named after the bamboo 'Gope' used in crafting melodious flutes, stands divided by the Rangla Landslide.

 This twin villages Lingee and Payong consist of a heterogeneous mix of Nepali communities like Sharma, Chettri, Rai, Limboo & Gurung, peppered with a few Lepchas. This gives one an opportunity to absorb the different cultures of Sikkim. Agriculture being the mainstay of the village, gives you an opportunity to work in the fields with your hosts.

THE 'GREEN VILLAGE'

 Chauridara, popularly known as the Green Village in South Sikkim marks the end of human habitation at the base of the Maenam Wildlife Sanctuary. Just 45 km from Singtam and 130 km from Siliguri, Chauridara beckons adventurers with its pristine beauty. This tiny, picturesque haven, a virgin territory lush with vibrant greenery, stands as Sikkim's hidden gem. Nature here weaves a tapestry of wonder, inviting travelers to explore its every fold.

Chauridara is also a gateway to natural wonders – the cascading Seven Sister Waterfalls, the invigorating Dareli trek, and the mystical trails of Ganesh Dhunga in the heart of the Maenam Wildlife Sanctuary – each promising an adventure waiting to be embraced. What sets Chauridara apart is not just its natural allure but also its commitment to preserving its ecological heritage.

Embracing the ethos of eco-tourism, the village champions sustainable practices, a cause championed not just by the locals but also supported ardently by the government. Green Village invites you to step into a world where nature's splendor meets the warm embrace of community, promising an experience that resonates in the heart long after the journey ends.
