Saramsa Garden : Picnic Destinations in Sikkim
Saramsa Garden in
Ranipool, Sikkim, is a beautiful botanical garden perfect for nature lovers.
Spread over acres of land, it's a haven of diverse plants from Sikkim and
beyond. You'll find all sorts of plants here, from colorful orchids to
medicinal ones and plenty of flowers.
The Garden is more popular these days for a best picnic destination to enjoy weekend holidays with family and friends. I have personally enjoyed this trip with my son and with newly installed playground item it is more enjoyable for kids. Pay Rs. 100 and enjoy the fun time at the Garden. Marriage parties and social function is other things that attract people to this place.
What makes Saramsa
special is its peaceful atmosphere and lovely pathways that wind through the
greenery. It's a great place for a relaxing stroll or to just sit and enjoy
nature's beauty. The garden also has a greenhouse where they take care of
delicate plants, making it even more interesting to explore.
Besides being a lovely
spot for visitors, Saramsa Garden is also an educational place. They organize
workshops and programs to teach people about plants and how to take care of
them. It's a fantastic opportunity to learn while being surrounded by the stunning
natural setting.
