Chowrasta is the heart of Darjeeling town and a favourite for shopping and evening walks. Its name means “four roads”, because four roads meet here.
What to see and do
- Old, heritage shops on one side, and an open view on the other
- Tall pine trees all around
- Sit on a bench and enjoy the view with a cup of Darjeeling tea
A little history
In British days, Europeans came here for their evening walks. Today locals and visitors do the same.
