Darjeeling on a shared
jeep. I had one more
wonder to experience.
The tea bars of
Darjeeling
The abundance of tea
gardens around
Darjeeling has given
birth to a unique
concept. Instead of
cafes, you’ll find tea
bars in abundance.
These tea bars have
different teas (mostly
without milk) and light
snacks to accompany

them. Since most of
them are located on the
Mall Road, it is easy to
visit and enjoy some tea
with great views from
the outside.
The first tea bar that I
waked into a small but
fancy establishment, ran
by an elderly couple.
Apparently, this was one
of the first tea parlours
in the town and had a
huge selection of tea
samples. You don’t only
get to taste different
varieties of tea but you
can also pack and take
some of them home. I
sipped on a heavenly
cup of Darjeeling tea
while watching kids and
lovelorn couples taking
horse ride at Chowrasta
Mall. It was evening, the
weather sounded as if it
will rain sooner or later.
I left for my hotel.
An adventure in

Darjeeling, take a day
