During its 40th session, the World Heritage Committee of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) sanctioned the Khangchendzonga National Park (KNP) as India’s 35th World Heritage Site. This inscription comes after a decade of planning that began in March 2006, and protects nearly 178,500 ha of Himalayan habitat in Sikkim.

KNP joins India’s rapidly expanding network of 27 cultural and 7 natural heritage sites; however, it is the first and only Indian site to meet the mixed – both cultural and natural – heritage criteria.
It has a large diversity of species of higher plants (1,580), mammals (124) and birds (300). There is no other protected area found in the Indian Himalaya with such variety of sub-forest types and species diversity.

सिक्किम की राजधानी गंगटोक में जेलेप्ला दर्रे और नाथुला दर्रे के बीच बना बाबा हरभजन सिंह मंदिर लगभग 13 हजार फीट की ऊंचाई पर स्थित है। इस मंदिर में बाबा हरभजन सिंह की एक फोटो और उनका सामान रखा हुआ है।
बताया जाता है कि 4 अक्टूबर 1968 में सिक्किम के नाथुला पास में गहरी खाई में गिरने से सैनिक हरभजन सिंह की मृत्यु हो गई थी। लोगों का ऐसा मानना है कि तब से लेकर आज तक इस सैनिक की आत्मा यहां सरहदों की रक्षा करती है।
आपको सुनने में ये थोड़ा अजीब जरूर लगेगा, लेकिन लोगों का ऐसा ही मानना है और दूर-दूर से लोग यहां बाबा हरभजन सिंह मं‌दिर में पूजा करने आते हैं। यही नहीं इस सैनिक ने मरने के बाद भी अपनी नौकरी जारी रखी है। फिलहाल, ये सैनिक अब रिटायर हो चुका है। 13 हजार फीट पर है मंदिर...
