Yumesamdong Zero Point - Sikkim, India

Snow at Yumesamdong has always been of great attraction for tourists.  Located at an altitude of around 15300 feet Yumesamdong (popularly known as Zero Point) is very near to the Chinese border. It is about 26 kilometers from Yumthang Valley, another famous place in North Sikkim. From Yumthang Valley it takes almost an hour to reach Zero Point. This drive is as amusing as the place itself – through the meandering mountainous roads amidst the rocky terrain of North Sikkim. It is a life-time experience.
