Darjeeling, popularly known as the “Queen of the Hills”, is a bustling tourist town in the northernmost region of West Bengal. It is famous for its cosmopolitan culture, and the diverse ethnic groups intermixing and evolving away from their historical roots. Darjeeling has an indigenous cuisine rich in fermented foods and beverages.

However, this region records landslides due to excessive rainfall, earthquakes, and quick erosion caused by torrents. It is a subtropical highland which poses a danger to bike riders who ride the rugged terrains of the mountainous region.
