Also known as Denzong,The Hidden Valley of Rice Sikkim is a magical land that remained an untouched kingdom, with a feudalistic system, until 1975 when India annexed it and made it its 22nd state.The strategic location of this state, flanked by Bhutan,Tibet, and the Indian state of West Bengal explains the need India felt to annex it. An incredible effort has been made to develop Sikkim, and most of the villages there today have tap water and electricity. Roads have been built across and around the hills and mountains, allowing travelers to reach the slopes covered with eternal snow with a few hours of leaving the tropical areas.
