This is why the British LOVED Darjeeling - India's first Colonial Hill Station

[@dostoevsky90]

I went to Darjeeling in 2003 to undergo the Mountaineering course in Himalayan Mountaineering Institute when in school 9th std….It’s one of the best places to walk around and get a great view of the Khangchendzonga peak. i think the Dalai Lama also visited Darjeeling in that time.. around 25k ppl entered Darjeeling within a day, a record in those days… great video to all those involved in this channel ..thank you so much… a nostalgic feeling indeed😊…

[@Homestaying]

Oh it mustve been so different back then, crazy to think that's almost 20 years ago ! Do check out Episode 2 where Priyanka did visit the Zoological Park and the HMI and tell us if its changed significantly. You can watch it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/laaWenuImN1mjqcsi=_Tm6poCIeLJdJcDN

@@The90kid dude stfu!!!! I just saw your past comments on this channel and unfortunately ppl like you are ruining youtube recently by spewing venomous comments for no rhyme or reason.. did you even check with me before asking my citizenship… do you even know that no school kids are allowed courses in HMI Darjeeling except for a Army affiliated school in Dehradun for their basic mountaineering course and i have clearly mentioned that i went during my school days…ya and about my patriotism while you shit around the internet i am busy protecting our nations security in j&k, LAC, manipur and nagaland while donning the uniform…my patriotism isnt fake like yours, we actually sweat blood to keep this country of ours safe… don’t question my patriotism… cant believe you are just here to irritate ppl!

[@sonamg4229]

History of Darjiling is Tibet 😂. Actually is Tibetans used “རྡོ་རྗེ་གླིང་།-Dorje Ling-दोर्जे लिंग” Not Darjiling. Dorje Ling is the Named of Very Old Tibetans Monastery. Invaded by British 🇬🇧 India. So English use डर्जि लिंग Darjiling. NJP Siliguri is the Historic Indo-Tibetans Border. Jai ✊ Hind, Jai Bharat ✊. Sonam Gauri Gudalur

[@Homestaying]

You're right. Dorje Ling, as it was called has a rich history predating the British, including Sikkimese, Tibetan and Nepali occupation.

When we were kids in 50's Tibetan refugees came to Darjeeling, they used to sell safety pins, churpee etc..... don't distort history ..... Tibetans are refugees in India

@@The90kid Areh ho Sampa. Darjeeling is before 1959 Invaded by British 🇬🇧 India. But, Indian Government Not Recognised Tibetans Refugees. India’s accepted Tibetans Is Exiled and Special Guest of India 🇮🇳. When Darjeeling little Local people are not working British 🇬🇧 servants.
