essay on my favourite hill station in English hill station name Darjeeling
Answers
Answer:
As there are certain difficulties in connecting a hilly area to the mainland using railways, direct trains to this city are rare and one instead has to take a train to the Siliguri station, mostly.
This and certain other such connecting areas serve as the link between tourists and the city of Darjeeling. If one wishes to take a flight, the nearest connecting airport is that of Bagdogra.

Airplanes fly frequently between Bagdogra and Kolkata. In every sense, Darjeeling is a very well-connected city which in turn smoothly facilitates tourism and that too, in the most affordable of ways.
Another major attraction of this city is the spectacular toy train.
The ‘toy train’, or the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway is an experience of a lifetime, and I was fortunate enough to have availed this rare mode of transportation while my visit to the city.
This system runs from New Jalpaiguri to Darjeeling. The toy train places Darjeeling on the world map as it is a prestigious UNESCO world heritage site.
The train runs on a narrow-gauge railway and was built way back in the nineteenth century (approximately between the years 1879 and 1881).
The headquarters of the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway lie in the beautiful town of Kurseong.
This line of toy trains is also classified as mountain railways and such railways are a rare occurrence not only in this country, but over the entire world.
The successful survival of this railway proves how efficient the DHR administration is, and adds on conveniently to the attraction that this hill station is.
While taking this train, one passes through a picturesque landscape, painted complete by clouds, hills, and the occasional appearance of the magnificent snow-clad peaks. The tunnels add on to the enigma of the journey.
The local scenery is charming and quaint and is soothing to the eyes of urban dwellers like us.
Such journeys really refresh one to their core as such sceneries are a pleasant change to the monotonous daily routines which bind us to our lifestyle.
hope it helps......
