No
beautiful mountains, no serene views, no amazing weather, no warm and friendly
locals. Why would you visit Darjeeling?
- There
is zero greenery in Darjeeling.
|
Yes, I don't see greenery anywhere |
- The
mornings are boring. The sunrise from Tiger Hill from the majestic Kanchenjunga
is something one can see from anywhere in the world so what’s so special about
it.
|
A view you can get from anywhere in the world nothing special./ |
- Riding
the Darjeeling Himalayan Railways is not great. So what if it’s a UNESCO World
Heritage Site, with Ghoom railway station being Asia’s highest elevation
station. So what the Darjeeling Railways gives you a beautiful example of
Darjeeling’s history and British civilization in an amazing way. Not a big
deal.
|
UNESCO World Heritage, not a big deal? |
- Darjeeling
has the worst views in the world. The view of the Himalayas, rolling hills and
tea gardens is something you can see anywhere.
|
Definitely the worst view, right? |
- You
do not get the world’s finest tea, known for its strong aroma around the world.
|
A women picking tea leaves in a tea garden. |
- There
isn’t anything historical about this town.
|
View of Darjeeling during the British Indian Rule. |
- The
Padmaja Naidu Himalayan Zoological Park in Darjeeling doesn’t have anything to see. The
Siberian Tiger, The Red Pandas, The Himalayan Black Bear, The Snow Leopard, The
Clouded Leopard are animals that are not endangered and are found in any zoo.
|
The Clouded Leopard, found in Darjeeling, can be found everywhere and is so common.
Oh you have a pet clouded leopard too? |
- The
food here are bland and uninteresting.
|
These momos, and not delicious right? Are you sure your mouth isn't watering? |
- If
you were to travel all the way here, you would have zero #skyporn instagrams.
|
No skyporn for Instagram? |
- There
isn’t anything fun and interesting to do here. No place for hiking and no hills
to trek.
|
Darjeeling definitely has no place for trekking and hiking.! duh! |
- There
is nothing exciting, adventurous and thrilling to do here. White water river
rafting, paragliding, rock climbing are few boring stuffs to do in Darjeeling
which is not fun at all. One can actually do all those at the comfort of their
homes.
|
White water river rafting in river Teesta. Not adventurous right? |
- The
town doesn’t have any beautiful religious monuments, defining the diverse
culture in Darjeeling. One may not find any Hindu temples, churches, Buddhist monasteries
in this town and the famous Japanese peace pagoda is also not situated in
Darjeeling.
|
Druk Thupen Sangay Choeling Buddhist Monastery is located at Dali, Darjeeling. |
- There
has been no films that have been shot in Darjeeling. Tons of movies from the
Bengali film industry, popular Bollywood blockbusters like Main Hoon Na, Barfi,
Yaariyan, etc were also not shot in Darjeeling.
|
Still from Barfi, shot in Darjeeling. Wait a minutes, Barfi shot in Darjeeling? |
- Darjeeling
doesn’t have the World’s first passenger ropeway.
|
Yes this is not in Darjeeling as well. |
- You
see zero tourists in Darjeeling that come to see the snowfall, which is very
ugly and not appealing.
|
What is so beautiful about this right? |
- The
night view of Darjeeling lack any kind of charm or beauty.
|
Darjeeling has no charm at night. Absolutely ugly. |
- Taking
a walk around here is mind-numblngly dull.
|
So Dull! |
- Who
would want to wake up to this view outside their window? NOT ME.
|
View of the mighty Kanchenjunga peak outside your window? Huh? |
- The
people aren’t really that friendly too plus you don’t even see a smiling face.
|
No one's smiling. |
- Also,
there is nothing festive and cultural in Darjeeling.
|
Cultural performances during the Darjeeling tourist festival, wait a minute.. oh? |
|
400 guitarists gather together performing Imagine by John Lennon in Darjeeling for promoting love and peace and against rape cases. How can this be generous and nice? |
- This
isn’t even a place where you could escape to the hustle and bustle.
|
Ohh too crowded and noisy and what? |
- There
is nothing beautiful so never visit Darjeeling.
|
See there is nothing beautiful in Darjeeling. |
