Magic Moment of Rise

Sunrise over snow capped Himalayan mountain range of South Sikkim, India. A fascinating optical phenomenon of sun light refraction, allowed witnessing the unique view which brings out this opportunity. We actually got up early at 4.30 AM morning and road journey begins from Lachen Village-10,000 ft altitude (temp-3/5 degree) at sharp 5.30AM on 24.03.2018 destination ‘Gurudongmar Lake’ 17,100 ft altitude. After about one hour drive at 6.30 AM before arriving Thangu (14,000 ft) the opportunity unfolded which speak for it.
