About The Experience

Immerse in the living mountain forest

Far above the smog and artificial glare of plains cities, TIEEDI sits in an pristine dark sky pocket of the eastern Himalayas. On clear nights, the Milky Way arches across the velvet sky like an illuminated river of silver dust.

Equipped with astronomy laser pointers and binoculars, our guide guides you through constellations, planets, and shooting stars, accompanied by ancient Lepcha, Nepali, and Tibetan celestial folklore and mountain mythologies.
