Jorpokhri
Jorpokhri (জোড় পোখরি) is a small lake village on a hilltop in
Darjeeling district near LepchaJagat. The
place located about 23 kms. away from fascinating Darjeeling town. The name of
this village derives from two-lakes, ‘Jor’ meaning is two and ‘Pokhri’
meaning is Lake. Jorpokhri offers a magnificent view of Mt. Kanchenjunga along
with number of snowcapped ranges. This is very peaceful and romantic place,
situated just above of congested and over crowed Sukhiapokhri.
The road
from Siliguri to Jorpokhri is so charming and great experience through deep
green scenery and tea gardens. The last two kilometers go through dense forest to
the top of the hill and suddenly you will see flat land. Two well decorated
lakes are the main attraction of Jorpokhri, you can spend an entire day with
lakes, mountains and silence. Take a small stroll to nearby Lord Shiva temple,
the temple located at very nearby of the lake, also you can take a short trip
to Pashupati Nath Market, Nepal border, Ghoom and Darjeeling.
