North Bengal
North Bengal is a fascinating region for nature lovers and travellers looking for an escape from the hectic pace of modern life. Stretching across the northern part of West Bengal and sharing international borders with Nepal, Bhutan and Bangladesh, North Bengal offers an extraordinary variety of landscapes—from the high Himalayas in the north to the fertile Gangetic plains in the south.
This geographical diversity, combined with the region's rich history and the traditions of its many ethnic communities, makes North Bengal a remarkably diverse travel destination in eastern India and a gateway to Northeast India. Today, North Bengal comprises eight districts—Darjeeling, Kalimpong, Jalpaiguri, Alipurduar, Cooch Behar, Uttar Dinajpur, Dakshin Dinajpur and Malda.
