Over-hyped

It actually is a nothing sort of a place. You find better views walking along the streets. Waste of time. However the coffee in the restaurant opposite to this joke of a place is good.

Magnificent panoramic view

The place has a magnificent view of the mountains from the top. Even if you do not get to see the Kanchanjanga still worth a visit. Best to go early hours in the day. One will have to climb few stairs..

Not the view anymore

This must have been a good view point years before the surrounding developments took place. Some mountain views but not so clear too. Was supposed to be 3 side views. Can skip the place easily
