SUNRISE AT TIGER HILL
While the world sleeps, the first rays of the rising sun catch the peak of Kanchenjunga. Slowly the sunlight spills down its slopes and ridges as the day awakens. In a brilliant display of colour, the massif changes from fiery orange to yellow and dazzling white in the cool crisp air of the Himalayan morning. It is perhaps one of the most spectacular sunrises in the world.		 SANDAKPHU SPLENDOR
From one spot it is possible to see four eight thousand meter Himalayan giants - Mt. Everest, Lhoste, Makalu and Kanchenjunga.
Savour the feeling of being on top of the world.
