Jalebi Road (on old silk route)

Uploaded: April 17, 2011 21:00:20

Description

A beautiful sharply winding road leading to Zuluk/Kupup in East Sikkim bordering Bhutan/Tibet. Unending layers of blue mountains, with snow peaks playing hide-n-seek with the clouds, and the road lying like a sleeping python in the lap of the virgin forests. A treat to the eyes. Permit is given from Rongli. Otherwise military route (well kept by BRO naturally), with no hustle-bustle of tourists even in season.

Exif: F Number: 9, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 10/1600 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 125, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 44.00 mm, Model: NIKON D80
