My journey in Siliguri began with a visit to Salugara Monastery, and it was the perfect start. Also known as the Great International Tashi Gomang Stupa, this peaceful Buddhist monastery offers a sense of calm the moment you step inside. The highlight is the majestic 100-foot stupa, built by Tibetan Lama Kalu Rinpoche, which holds five sacred relics of Buddhism. You can spin the large prayer wheels, light butter lamps, and simply soak in the serenity around you. Whether you're spiritual or just seeking a quiet place to reflect, this spot is a must-visit. The peaceful vibe, colorful details, and deep sense of devotion make Salugara Monastery a truly special stop in Siliguri.

This is about 10km from sevoke mod (junction) and you can get a share auto for INR 20. I reached this place at 245 pm and the gate looked closed, so I enquired and they said it is open. I walked in and there was just another tourist who was busy gossiping on the phone. The main entrance for the monstery was shut, so I walked around the monastery to the top. It's another floor. The door was open, so I went in and sat there, prayed for a bit. Enjoyed the surrounding and went below again. It was about 3pm and a young monk opened the door. I was very grateful that he opened it, or else I would have gone away without getting a chance to enter inside. I think the lord hear me. I went in , bowed down, sought blessings from the lord. The young monk, did play a drum, in a particular fashion. I looked at him in awe. He walked out after some time and I too did. The monstery was quiet and very peaceful. I wish someone was there to explain me the paintings, the things kept. They have a lot of meaning. The monstery had place for young monks to stay and an office as well. The monstery is on the main road and very easy to find. A must go if you are in siliguri

A very beautiful and peaceful Buddhist Monastery where all are welcome to experience the beauty. Decorated mostly in Golden colour, many parts are eclectic. The Caretakers are very friendly and welcoming, a must visit to feel the beauty

A very peaceful, less visited monastery in Siliguri. Just around 4km from NJP railway station. Serene atmosphere, I was the only visitor then.

Nestled quietly just 6 km from the bustling town center of Siliguri, the Salugara Monastery feels like someone pressed the pause button on life and gifted us a moment of serenity. With fluttering prayer flags, gentle chants, and that unmistakable fragrance of incense wafting through the air — it’s less of a tourist spot and more of a spiritual detox. Built by followers of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, this monastery is a beloved retreat for monks and mindfulness seekers alike. It belongs to the Ghoom-based Kagyu sect of Tibetan Buddhism and is a beautiful example of how faith, culture, and peace can co-exist in glorious harmony — even in a town famous for traffic jams and tea gardens. What Makes It Special? - The 100-foot Stupa, said to be blessed by the Dalai Lama himself, is the showstopper here. Known as the Great International Tashi Gomang Stupa, it’s believed to contain five kinds of Buddhist relics, making it spiritually potent and architecturally magnificent. - The interiors of the monastery are equally enchanting — vibrant murals, thangkas (Buddhist paintings), and statues that whisper centuries of wisdom without saying a word. - Surrounded by greenery and a gentle breeze from the Himalayan foothills, it’s perfect for introspection, or for pretending you’re in a Satyajit Ray film montage. Did You Know? - This monastery was a product of the post-1959 Tibetan diaspora, which brought with it not just people, but philosophy, compassion, and a profound sense of art and resilience. - It’s one of the few places in Siliguri where spiritual tourism meets real spiritual practice — not a selfie-museum in disguise. - The monastery often holds prayer sessions and teachings for locals and visitors, making it more than just a photo op — it’s a window into a living, breathing philosophy. Reflection The Salugara Monastery isn’t loud or flashy — it’s wise. A visit here feels like a deep breath in a world of constant scrolls. Whether you’re into Buddhism, bored of malls, or just need to reboot your soul — it’s worth your time, and perhaps even a silent prayer.

A small but beautiful Monastery in the centre of city.

You feel peace of mind when you enter in monastery ✨

"A Bargain Hunter’s Delight in the Heart of Siliguri". Huge variety of imported and local goods at highly competitive prices, the market's lively atmosphere, with colorful stalls and animated vendors, adds to its charm. Quality varies especially for electronics, bargaining required or else overpaying is common if you're not cautious

Welcome to the iconic Hong Kong Market - Siliguri’s answer to every shopaholic’s wildest dreams — and every husband’s worst nightmare. This iconic bazaar isn’t just a market; it’s a high-octane shopping safari, with bargaining as the official language and “fixed price” a fictional concept. Tucked in the heart of Siliguri, this place is as chaotic and colorful as a Holi party on roller skates. It’s famous (read: borderline notorious) for selling everything from branded lookalikes to genuinely unbranded originals, all imported — well, allegedly — from Thailand, Nepal, Bhutan, and of course… Hong Kong (wink wink). What’s in the Bag? - Electronics that may or may not live beyond their warranty-free existence. Earphones, trimmers, speakers — you name it, they’ve got five versions of it in five different spellings. - Fashion items that are 99% style, 1% stitching. From ‘Gucci’ belts to ‘Adidas’ sneakers, the market offers you the global experience, minus the guilt-inducing price tags. - Bags, toys, perfumes, watches, and clothes for the whole family — including that one cousin who only shops in street markets but flexes like a Milan runway model. Trivia That Tingles Your Brain - The market came up in the late 1990s, riding the wave of cross-border trade from Nepal, Bhutan, and China. - It’s named "Hong Kong Market" not because of any direct tie to Hong Kong, but because "Import Market" didn’t quite have the same ring to it. - It’s a hotspot for tourists from Bhutan and the Northeast, who treat it like their own mini Dubai Shopping Festival — minus the camel rides. Real Talk If you want to test your negotiation skills, empty your pockets joyfully, and return home with 6 bags of "branded" joy for the price of one coffee at Starbucks, then my friend, this is your Disneyland. Just don’t come with a full wallet or a weak resolve. You’ll either return with a suitcase or a story. Or both. Mood: Bargain-hunting Beast Mode!

A typical market offering all the essentials—bags, shoes, clothes, accessories, and umbrellas—alongside some tourist-friendly items like souvenirs, magnets, and more. However, the variety is quite limited, with most shops selling similar products. Despite mentions of bargaining in several reviews, we found that prices were largely fixed, with little room for negotiation. Visited on a Saturday, the market was fairly crowded, and shops began closing around 7:30 PM. Additionally, there are several smaller markets around its various entrances, adding to the shopping experience.

This market is mainly known for the chinese imports. But you can get almost everything here from clothes to shoes, from household items to decoratives, and many more. This is a big market where there are a lot of options to do. It offers a variety of items at potentially lower prices than other markets, but be ready for bargaining.

If you are from Kolkata, Then Chandni market is far far better. I am Talking about electronics shopping. There is almost nothing electronic in hong kong market, forget the "Imported goods" thing. Sure you get a lot of varities in clothing. But hong kong market has only clothing and wearable accessories to provide. Or Either I didn't find the place I was supposed to.

One of the best places where you can get everything u want 😜.. But if you have a bargaining power then welcome 🤗😁.. Be careful from some shop kippers... Air ventilation is low... Avoid weekend.... Approx 500 shop with different types of accessories available here..

I loved exploring Hong Kong Market in Siliguri it’s a lively street market with trendy clothes, bags, footwear and cute accessories. The prices are super affordable and bargaining makes it even more fun. The lanes are a bit crowded but that’s the charm of street shopping. I wouldn’t really recommend visiting in hot weather it’s better to go in the evening when it’s cooler. It's totally a must-visit for fashion lovers

Very good place to spent a day with family friend children Safari is good Zoo is beautiful with limited variety Children can play with joy. An opportunity to see the huge Bengal tiger at close quarters There are antlers, monkeys, peacock…but it’s the big cats that prowl around that’s the main attraction. Haven’t seen so many of them…and so close as here in this small sanctuary .

Buy online tickets. Saves time. You would have to visit souvenir shop once inside as they will allocate seat numbers in the mini bus/canter there. Nice experience overall. The animals are in separate large enclosures and it reminded of Bannerghatta National Park in Bengaluru. It’s basically a more open and glorified zoo and not the natural forest habitat where there is natural selection for preys and predators, but rather isolated and secluded and segregated enclosures for each type - bears, leopards, tigers, deers etc.

Went to Bengal Safari with my little one and my family on a Saturday . What an unforgettable day! The staff at the ticket counter and waiting area were very friendly and made the whole experience smooth and welcoming. My son was thrilled to see Bengal tigers, lions, leopards, peacocks, and various deer up close during the safari ride. The park is clean, well maintained, and has comfortable spots to rest and enjoy snacks. After the safari, we explored the small zoo and aviary, where the colorful birds fascinated my boy. It’s a perfect place for families to connect with wildlife and nature in a safe and fun environment. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Siliguri with kids!

There is ample parking space if one plans to bring a vehicle. The entry fee is Rs. 50 per person and one can have a stroll around the free walk zoo area where there are rare birds, monkeys, lesser cats, crocodiles, gharials, etc. If one buys tickets for a Grand Safari which costs Rs. 400 per person, which offers an air-conditioned with a seating capacity of approx. 20 persons, one gets to see leopards, lions, deers, tigers and bears. Overall, this place is a must-visit if you are travelling to Siliguri and want to see wildlife up close.

A wonderful experience at Bengal Safari! The park is clean, well-organized, and perfect for a family outing. The safari ride was exciting — we got to see tigers, leopards, bears, and deer up close. The staff is helpful, and the place is beautifully maintained. A great destination for both kids and adults to connect with nature and wildlife. 🐯🌳

The location is pretty good for tourist. Either you plan for this place at the binging of your North Bengal tour or at the end. Three hours all you need for the safari on the way to NJP or from. Pre booking will help you to avoid the que of ticketing. Everyone will enjoying the safari as this is the closest you can go to a wildlife. AC vehicles with transparent windows will take you there. The earlier in morning you go the better the chance to see a animal in the act. But in the end if your fond of wildlife. We are taking away the jungles from wildlife, which is awful. Still you can say it's a star hotel for captured or rehabilitated animals.

We could spot plenty of deers (spotted deers), Himalayan bears, leopards and striped Bengal tigers. Tigers were looking quite healthy. We went in 2 buses for the safari inside. The only LOW point is that the safari bus drivers were very less communicative and did not bother to explain / answer queries etc. This should be improved - and then 5* rating - if our questions were answered!

This is a park combination of amusement park and park... Rides are normal in amusement park. Water park is more exciting than amusement park . Overall good choice for spending quality times with family ... Specially for kids . Little expensive as per service is concerned. Park is open for every day in a week and timing 11am to 6 pm . Entry fee for amusement park 80/- and 70/- for adults and children (for week days) and in week end entry fee 100/- and 90/-.There are probably 11 rides each of 60/- extra. In water park weekdays entry fee 350/- and 250/- (for child upto height 3') and week end 450/- and 350/-. Available car parking space of Rs. 40/-. Locker facility is available of Rs. 100/-. Costumes are also available (40/- per set for boys) you can use own costume but that stuf should be made of nylon not cotton(not allowed). You can keep your shoes in exchange of 10/-. Wave creation in water is interesting (probably 1hour interval). Sliding is also exciting. Fast Food is also available there but average quality. Overall nice place to visit in summer.

Unnecessary staff behaviour out there. I went there for waterpark. i have to deal with more than 5-10 peoples around there through check in to check out. I got like 10-15 bills for this and that They took something 80rs for clothes and they just provide half pant which is in bad condition. And i asked them for tshirt then they said that men don't need tshirt wowww.

Seven Kingdom is a fun water park! I'd rate it 3 out of 5 — good for a day out, but some areas could be better! 😉

The place was okay, nothing too special. The ambience is decent and the staff were polite, but the service was a bit slow. Food tasted fine, though some dishes could have been better. Prices are average for what they offer. Overall, it’s just an okay experience.

Absolutely loved this place. We went with our 4yo kid on the weekdays, and it was not crowded. Plentiful parking spots and got 20% weekdays discount on the regular price. Restaurant serving food inside the park is OK but overpriced. Locker system available for additional price and shoe storage can done without any price but not recommended.

Huge queues for purchasing tickets, Good water park activities for kids and adults Outside food is not allowed. Tickets are required for 3ft and above kids. Apart from the water park there is also a Multiplex - carnival cinema and an amusement park.

(Translated by Google) There is no contact number so that if I ever want to have a satsang then I can contact me!! (Original) Koi Contact Number nahi hai? jisse agar kabhi satsang karana ho to contact kar sake !!

This restaurant is just near to saluja hotel. I was looking for good dinner after a tiring tour in siliguri without lunch . The vibe is good. Service is great. Food is bit on costlier end but tastes good . Maybe I was the only one and there are no option like half plate . I had ordered everything in full , food seemed good for 2 person , it was over the diet for me .

Dhaba by Amber, located at Saluja Residency on Hill Cart Road near Sevoke More, Khalpara, Siliguri, is one of the city’s top-rated North Indian-themed restaurants. Quirky, Bollywood-themed Décor: Styled like a vintage dhaba with vibrant elements: modified truck entrance, autorickshaw seating, bicycle-tyre light fixtures and Bollywood posters. Spacious with both indoor and outdoor seating, including private cabins and family corners. Ambience & Service: Often packed on weekends; best to reserve a table. Live staff dance performances and regular sports screenings add to the vibe . Friendly, attentive service and a clean, well-maintained space, though some guests note crowd levels near AC vents can feel warm ﹣some find it "so so". Food & Drinks: Extensive North Indian + Punjabi dishes, with some Chinese and Mughlai options—plus a full bar and mocktail menu . Signature dishes frequently praised: Chicken Alishaan, Singh Sahab Chicken, Green Star Chicken, Paneer Butter Masala, Chilli Chicken, Chur Chur Naan, Jalebi with rabri, Fish Irani.

It's situated in hillcart road. Ambience of this restaurant is very calm and soothing. Decoration is also eye catching. We had ordered here- aam panna, fish fingers, naan, butter paneer, chicken bharta and fried rice. Teste is very good. Little bit expensive but ambience and teste wise it is okay.

A nice experience here with my family and buddies . Ambiance here is just awesome and foods were also good in taste . The price is slightly high , otherwise everything is nice .

Food was really good. But I don't recommend this place for family gathering.

Good food. But quantity is very less. Prices seem bit costly for the quantity. But good for one time visit.

Disappointed and dissatisfied with the service.....They were taking so much time to prepare the food and the food is costly I swear if you compare with other big restaurants of Siliguri with the same cost you will find better food and better ambience..... And also the waiters were disorganised.... Altogether went there with friends but the experience let us down.....

Its an average bar. The food quality and quantity is good but the atmosphere is not up to the mark. The dance floor is small. People dance here with their own groups

Visited Hastag with my gang on a Sat evening to celebrate a birthday party. At reception we booked a table for 8 by the terrace, The bar interiors in oval and dim ambience truly bespoke " Night life ". The waiter or escort were very helpful, friendly, beer tasting was fun, a 5L beer keg, starters like baby crispy corn, chicken wings, aromatic chicken, mushroom , noodles, etc. Crispy Corn was highlight for me. Crowd started pouring in, Band were singing hollywood oldies, Old school English - OG vibes. Service became slow obviously. DJ Neel took over, good taste in mixes but the transition and drops were not matching the dance floor. The place was stocked even at midnight, crowds coming in, Speakers blasting and dance floor was housefull. Cheers to the fun night and the Birthday Girl !

I enjoy their food a lot. I have been here before covid and it’s still the same. The ambiance is lively but in the pictures you can see balloon decor because they had their anniversary party on. We went quite early so the place was crowded by the crew members and lesser guests. Over all their drinks were good and the service was really fast. Would recommend

Loved the fact that they had an open air smoking area. Thin crust smoked Chicken Pizza was very tasty. As compared to other pubs in Siliguri, liquors were very cheap, about 60% cheaper than city center 🫡. Downside was that they had limited choices for beer, though they are coming in with their own brewery pretty soon. BTW, being a drinking spot with open area, you might want to invest in some netting outside, you never know what all tendencies folks get when drinking.

I have been ordering from quite a time from hashtag. Loved this place for their exciting combo meals. Their paneer butter masala pulao (₹175) is excellent. The paneer is really tasty and the pulao is good too. But please reduce the oil content in paneer. The oil content is similar to other outlets. The noodles manchurian combo (around ₹155) is a filling meal too. They need to improve the taste and consistency of dal makhani in the dal makhani aloo paratha meal. The quality and quantity served both are really good at the price point offered. At 40% off from swiggy, this place is one of the best as per quality and price to worth ratio for combo meals. If you liked the review, please do follow my profile. Cheers!

A really nice and great place to chill out with friends and family, their bar is a real happening thing at this place. I really loved their food although it's a pub, it still serves really good and delicious dishes and food, starting from the cheese jalapeno poppers,cheese garlic bread,Malai Tikka kebab, fiery chicken wings, chilli chicken sausage, the mocktails we're really good we tried a watermelon mojito, for main course we ordered red sauce pasta, which was a bit sweet than usual, chicken schezwan, chicken hakka noodles, matter pulao and mutton roganjosh. The food was really good and to top it all we ordered the gulab jamun Sunday which was a bit unique in taste but good. All over I loved the place and the food and will surely be visiting again.

Amazing experience-be it with family or friends. Food is super delicious, vibe is so good here. Soulful performances by artist - is what i look upto and wait for. Ambience is just rt to set ur party on fire. Altogether must must visit place. Seesha is also very very nice.

The overall experience was underwhelming. The dhoka was chewy and didn’t taste fresh, though the posto’r bora still retained some finesse. The bhetki was fresh, but the fish fry and ilish were just average. Unfortunately, the food lacked the depth and consistency expected. There’s definitely room to improve on quality and flavor.

Everything I ate here was absolutely flavourful and delicious. Service was average not so friendly staff though. The mutton dakbangla was a perfect delicacy, I expected it to be spicy but the spice level was less and there was a slight sweet taste on it. Would definitely have a second visit and taste their different items.

Great restaurant and good atmosphere. I ate shukto for the first time and the experience was not that good as I don't like bitter gourd in a curry much. The shukto had a slight bitter taste. I don't know whether the shukto tastes this way or it has another taste as well. But for me this was not that good for me.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this amazing Bengali restaurant that lived up to its stellar reputation. The Bhetki Paturi was exquisitely prepared, and the Basanti Polau perfectly complemented the rich, flavorful Mutton Kosha and the Jack fruit Kaliya. To top it off, the Nolen Gurer Ice Cream was a delightful treat, providing a perfect end to a satisfying meal. Every item was on point, showcasing the authenticity and excellence of Bengali cuisine. This restaurant is a must-visit for anyone in the area looking to experience top-notch Bengali flavors.

Best Bengali restaurant in Siliguri. Food is simply awesome .Had Prawns, ilish, Bhetki, mutton and nolen gur ice cream , all the dishes were finger licking good 👌👌

If there would been an option below 1*star, I would have provided that. One of the worst experience as the restaurant cheated customers and charging extremely high price when ordering through Swiggy. Simply cheating customers. Not recommended at all!

It's one of the finest restaurant in siliguri. They have varieties of bengali food here and they are really delicious. Fantastic serving, nice evergreen bengali music, actually a great, perfect bengali experience. Neat and clean restaurant. Loacted at prime location of hill cart road.The quality of food is very good, no doubt. But the quantity served is not satisfactory in accordance to the price. Price is on the higher side, but taste can balance that.

It is a bar cum restaurant, with good quality food & service. But it is quite expensive. And I really didn't like the interior & ambience. It's not bad, but not upto the mark. And also they don't serve 30ml drinks. I mean they do, but the price is close to the 60ml ones.

Authentic Chinese restaurant in Siliguri. Visited for dinner. Food quality is great. Although I didn't like the drums of heaven so much, the rest of dishes were perfect and tasty but rates are little on higher. Nice ambience, staffs are very friendly & service is fast. Not much crowded. Recommended for Chinese food lover.

The Fourier is very good and the price is very reasonable. However, there is a smell I think is from that smoke of incense which I am not very comfortable with.

I recently had the pleasure of dining here, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience! From the moment we stepped inside, the ambiance captivated us. The decor beautifully blends traditional and modern elements, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. We started with some refreshing beers accompanied by the double fried chili pork as our starter. It was absolutely delicious! The pork was perfectly cooked, crispy on the outside, and packed with flavor. The spice level was just right, making it an ideal appetizer to enjoy with our drinks. For the main course, we indulged in the seafood fried rice paired with sapo tofu and exotic veggies. The seafood fried rice was a delightful medley of fresh ingredients, bursting with flavor in every bite. The sapo tofu was a standout dish – incredibly creamy and rich, complemented by the vibrant veggies that added both texture and color to the plate. The service was attentive and friendly, making our dining experience even more enjoyable.

Price is reasonably high here. So grab a healthy wallet before you go. They maintain elegant food quality. Bar is attached with the restaurant. Not much crowded.

Food and service was really good ambiance is not comparable with price.

Delicious authentic Chinese food... Their soups and Drums of Heaven are awesome... And they serve a very unique pickled cucumber which is sweet and sour and extremely crunchy which makes me crave for more and more.... Awesome place to eat with great ambience.... They also have a bar along with restaurant, decorates tables and takes prior bookings for birthdays and anniversaries.... Must visit....

Absolutely odd place in the middle of the city, but it was a good reprieve from the standard Indian fare found elsewhere. The crispy noodle salad was good but the corn fritters was a little salty and over burnt. The pork chop was very fatty, but the burger was delicious, meat patty could be juicier. Nevertheless a great place to visit. One bad thing was we waited one hour for our burger, and we were the only table around. It seemed that they have priority to the takeaways.

Awesome place, this place has the potential to become one of the best places to eat in Siliguri. Continental/ western/ Chinese dishes in the Menu are fabulous they even have some Italian Dishes. Taste of the Veg Dimsums were very good. French fries were really crunchy. Fully air conditioned, Paytm accepted, All Visa cards accepted. Wheel chair accessible entrance. Restaurant has no separate parking , have to park in front of the restaurant in whatever space is available.Owner is a cool person , personally paid a visit to me , made sure things are ok and took feedback. Staff are very courteous. Live TV from a projector into a huge screen serves as a good focal point. Highly recommended.

Beautiful place to have dinner. Few things that make me come to this place repeatedly are, Ambience, Cordial behaviour from the staffs, Excellent collection of music. Right as one enters, will find graffiti of M Jackson beside the bar, and while looking around, Marley, Rolling Stones and many others will set the mood in as you can find Deep Purple to James Blunt buzzing in your ear. It is a continental restaurant. And you won't be disappointed with the food. Neither was I. All the food I've tried so far did not let me down. They have started with live music (like a pub) in the weekends. I have visited couple of times, both in weekdays. Never found it to be crowded. And never had to wait. While paying bills, they provided us with a free coupon for the next visit (may be due to promotional offer, but like forever, gifts make us happy, don't they 😇). This restaurant is little expensive, but is worth every penny for all the class experience they provide. It'll cost you somewhere around ~1.2k for a dinner for a couple (without drinks).

It's a swanky cozy place. The prices are on higher side. The ambience of the place is quite nice. Perfect for group or family dinner. They serve huge range of dishes from chicken items to pastas.

Well as it says its a gastropub and the food is quite tasty and you can hav lot of alcoholic beverages aswell

The platter never seems to go wrong. Good place for cracking open a cold one with the boys

Good ambience, good food. No parking space. Need to park on the side of the road.
