About Hanuman Tok
Hanuman Tok is a Hindu temple complex which is situated in the upper ranges of Gangtok, the capital of the Indian province of Sikkim. The temple is devoted to master Hanuman,and kept up by the Indian armed force.
As per the neighborhood legends, when Hanuman was flying with the "Sanjeevani"( fanciful life sparing herb) mountain to spare Rama's sibling Lakshmana he rested in the spot for quite a while where his temple now lies. The mandir is really overseen by The Indian Armed force.
Tok implies a temple, so it's a temple of Master Hanuman. Be that as it may, it's in reality significantly more than that and known for its great peaceful climate and a survey territory that offers awesome perspective of Kanchenjunga go. On the off chance that you ask me which point in the entire of Gangtok region offers the best perspectives of Kanchenjunga, I won't dither to pick Hanuman Tok.
It's situated at an elevation of 7,200 ft and on a street that branches off from the Gantok-Nathula Roadway. It's situated at a separation of 11kms from Gangtok town.
From the parking garage when you begin climbing the cleared stairs of the temple, there are seats to rest and absorb the greenery around. However the climb is generally simple and feasible for all. Petition ringers swing from above. Ring a ringer and it makes a reverberating sound.
Supplication serenades and once in a while religious music are played through the fitted sound speakers. It's a celestial and wonderful groping when you reach to the principle Hanuman temple and offer your petitions.
It is accepted by local people that Master Hanuman took rest for a minute at this place when he was en route to Lanka from the Himalayas. He was conveying sanjeevani herbs to cure Lakshman. The temple is famously known as wish satisfying temple.
As the legend says, local people used to revere a stone here for a considerable length of time. In 1950s a political officer named Appaji Gasp had a celestial dream at this place and after that the icon of Ruler Hanuman had been raised here. From that point forward the temple is privately known as the Hanuma Tok.
