Two Days in Darjeeling

[@marilynfletcher1137]

I took this trip in 1967 and was amazed by Darjeeling.I remember watching the sunrise from a hillside, illuminating Kanchenjunga, and stayed in a guesthouse owned by an Anglo Indian woman whose name I've forgotten. The entire trip was amazing; the best part was Darjeeling.

[@subbaraojaggaram4693]

Wow Very informative and beautiful scenery through train journey, Thanks for your well explain,

[@prsw100]

Thanks

[@pardesi745]

Beautiful video about my hometown Darjeeling where I spent the best days of my life

[@littlemisssunshine5331]

Great, beautiful, love it! So wonderful, so looking forward to going next month.

[@nabajyotisikdar5785]

Mr, PRSW 100, dear Sir, this mountainous city which is known as Queen of Hills, just for it's quality of pulling me as magnet, I have visited thrice Darjeeling..! An even now, I find opportunity to visit the city again and again..! But here in this video, I think you have add a new dimension to this, opening up a new vista for us..! I have visited the place once again through your eyes, and it's amazing..! Thank you so much for your contribution Sir...!

[@bharanimech7490]

Nice journey and your voice is lovely to hear and easy to understand

[@ronaldus2505]

I am planning a one year long trip that will start in London and from there to India and further. Your videos on India will be leading. It’s a great pleasure to watch them as part of the preparations. Safe travel!

[@silverjinglebobspur1]

Absolutely beautiful. The narration was perfect, an introduction to a fine movie, of a new home, having been found. I love it.

[@prsw100]

Thanks Charlie, you can see all the films at Xscion.org in categories. Enjoy, Paul

[@mesangsherpa7786]

Your narration made a perfect justice to our small yet beautiful town. The reason why Mark Twain said it took eight hours to reach Darjeeling is probably bcoz he took train from siliguri Itself and not just from Ghoom to the main town .

[@SILOPshuvambanerjee]

Yes, I suggest the same to my relatives from Kolkata

[@S_R_90x]

This is truly surreal. Gorgeous. I am blown away by the beauty of this place.

[@haemishkane5711]

As a young lad growing up in British India, living in Calcutta at the time. I had the privilege to be sent to boarding school GOETHALS MEMORIAL SCHOOL, KURSEONG, 30 km. from Darjeeling. Back in the day, the Toy Train ran regular services from Siliguri to Darjeeling. When we arrived at Siliguri after a 'two-day' journey from Calcutta the students were always excited to board the Toy Train reserved especially for us. We had our own 'Siding' a special STOP at the entrance to our school. As you can imagine the Toy Train full to capacity with very mischievous young boys it was a nightmare for the teachers to keep us under control. 2018, I have just recently visited the school which stands on a hilltop and clearly visible from the train with a large sign painted on a wall GOETHALS MEMORIAL SCHOOL. Misty water-colored memories of the way we were Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind Smiles we gave to one another for the way we were Can it be that it was all so simple then Or has time rewritten every line If we had the chance to do it all again Tell me, would we? Could we? THANKS FOR A WONDERFUL VIDEO.

[@prsw100]

Thanks Haemish, appreciate the comment, I liked the poem on the wall! Paul

[@sudeepdey770]

Thanks for the beautiful videos it's really a pleasure to see India through your eyes.

[@gurungaj7087]

[@saralapradhan8866]

Thanks for your lovely video, you have crowned our Hill queen in which she found thousands of viewers and appreciated by All over the world.

[@dinshawmuncherjee5123]

A lovingly recorded and video-graphed journey through one of those few remaining hill stations now, unfortunately, out grown it's original concept and become a bustling crowded town. But to the discerning and sensitive traveler they will ferret out that charm that once was 'Darge' as it is proudly referred to by those who studied at two prestigious schools there established and run by the British well into the fifties! The railway line was indeed an engineering feat that is even today, revered as a God-send and an integral part of the lore and culture of this region. This documentary, so sensitively and lovingly narrated really made this a memorable trip . Thank you

[@prsw100]

Many thanks Dinshaw for your interesting reply. I have to say the rap part that Prof. Alex and I had with the students was the highlight of the town. The film captured a little of that. Blessings and stay safe. Paul

[@dinshawmuncherjee5123]

@@prsw100 Thank you sir. Look forward to enjoying more of your delightful and educative documentaries. Good luck and stay safe

If you plan to buy tea, take it from the middle layers, they often add few grams of Darjeeling tea to the cheap tea

[@kaushikdasgupta67]

An excellently shot video ! Darjeeling is undoubtedly the 'queen of hill stations ' in India. Darjeeling is justifiably one of the most beautiful mountain towns not only in India, but also the whole world !

Beautiful video about darjeeling My home town where I spent the best days of my life. Miss you darjeeling

[@prsw100]

Another video about Beautiful India, filmed last October with great weather and amazing sights. Following my film on the Kalka-Shimla railway, the good news is that I shall film the Nilgiri Railway later this month in Ooti! Enjoy it!

[@moinul5864]

prsw100 absolutely astonishing. However, which hotel have you stayed in Darjeeling where the mountain is utterly visible !! Can you help me by providing the name please? In addition, how much money that you had to put for that hotel room ? I am planning to go to Dareeling next week , so your informative message will be surely helpful. Thanks in advance !!

[@prsw100]

Started in Sinclairs on the hill, about $60 a night per room with breakfast. Afterwards I saw better! Check Agoda.com

[@moinul5864]

oh ! This means a lot to me. Thanks :)

[@edshed968]

I've always wanted to go to Darjeeling and Sikkim. There's something majestic and soothing about this place. I think I could easily spend a year there if not longer. I was wondering if the cuisine there is more traditionally Indian or closer to Chinese?

[@prsw100]

I haven't been to Sikkim, but in Darjeeling the cuisine was mainly Nepalese and Indian, but Chinese food is always available in India. Western food is also available but I usually avoid it unless there's a BBQ Nation or TGI Friday!

[@kaushikdasgupta67]

This is a humongously spectacular vlog!! Out of all the vlogs on Darjeeling that I have watched on KZbin, this is undoubtedly the best. That's why I watch this vlog over and over again on my large HD TV and not on my smartphone or my desktop computer. It goes without saying that the.... Queen of hill stations.... Darjeeling is my most favourite in India. By the way, this is my 2nd comment on this vlog.

[@baljeet50]

[@peterburge1418]

Thanks. It brought back many happy memories from our trip. Had a good laugh on our trip on the train as they left before they had proper head of steam and we lost power and went backward a few times. Had workers putting rocks behind the wheels so we wouldn’t go to far back. Said hello 3 times to same person sitting outside their shop

[@prsw100]

Ha, I t’s not fair, there were no problems when we were there. That would have made a great vlog! Paul

Great video, I just did this trip 3 weeks ago, back to my hometown after a gap of 23 years.

[@TheFlyingExperience]

I want to thank you for doing this. My grandma raised me and as a child she would take me to Darjeeling every summer. I moved to the US twenty years back and I always wanted to go back there with her, but she passed away. I think of going back to Darjeeling and to that house often. It half way across the world and I will have to go back there one time soon. This movie you inspires me. Here did you stay? Are there any good hotels you can suggest? Was it cold and wet in October?

[@prsw100]

seatgurus Thanks for the comment, we stayed at Sinclairs, ok but expensive, weather is best in October, clear to see the Himalayas. Hope you can make it.

[@kapilsharma091]

[@bindumadhavpurohit7514]

Wow. Amazing video with an exceptional narration. The best part is you kept it simple. No doubt Britishers know how to chill in India better than the Indians themselves. I have been to Darjeeling 2 years ago and this video along with the narration bought back those memories as if i went there yesterday.Thank You Sir. Respect.

[@juditfesus9980]

It is a marvellous video with excellent narration. Guess it gives a perfect reflection of the unique beauty and atmosphere of this historic hill station. The train is a true wonder, hope it will run along its amazing railway forever. The film convinced us we must go there and see that all with our own eyes.
