Banjhakri falls and park, Mountainside waterfall and energy park in Gangtok, India

The waterfall drops 100 feet into a pool, surrounded by landscaped gardens with paved pathways and decorative bridges throughout the two-acre forest area.

Chief Minister Pawan Kumar Chamling initiated the park's development in 2004 after visiting Ranka Monastery, transforming forestland into an educational recreation center.

The park displays sculptures of traditional healers, including Mangpa, Bongthing, and Phedangba figures, representing the local shamanic traditions of Sikkim.

Located 7 kilometers from central Gangtok on National Highway 31, the park requires an entrance fee and operates under specific visiting hours.

The facility contains a museum operated by SREDA showcasing renewable energy innovations, including solar-powered vehicles and water heating systems.
