The best way to reach the Pass from Gangtok is by car since there are no other ways to get there. On the road to Nathula Pass, you can&#8217;t drive any different type of car (SUVs). To get around Gangtok, you can rent a car from one of the many places that offer this service. You could even ride up to Nathula Pass with additional tourists if you wanted to. The road from Gangtok-Nathula Pass is dangerous because it is vertical and has ice. It&#8217;s in great shape, except for a few minor scratches. As you drive to Nathula Pass, you should look at the Pass map.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"the-history-of-nathula-pass\"><\/span><strong>The History of Nathula Pass<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-23725 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Old-Silk-Road-Sikkim.jpg\" alt=\"Old Silk Road, Sikkim\" width=\"1080\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Old-Silk-Road-Sikkim.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Old-Silk-Road-Sikkim-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Old-Silk-Road-Sikkim-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Old-Silk-Road-Sikkim-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Nathula Pass is a popular tourist destination because it is beautiful and has a lot of historical significance. The Pass is a part of the Old Silk Road that links <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/india\/sikkim-tours\/\">Sikkim<\/a> to the Tibetan Autonomous Area. It is 58 kilometers from Gangtok and has a height of 4370 meters. It is a well-known tourist spot.<\/p>\n<p>This mountain pass is essential because it is <strong>where India and China meet.<\/strong> It was an important trade route between <strong>Tibet<\/strong> and <strong>India<\/strong> until 1962. Tourists can go to the International Border, where they can see Chinese and Indian troops fighting on either side of the barbed wire that separates the two countries. On the way, there is a lake called Tsomgo Lake.<\/p>\n<p>The Nathula is a paradise that should not get missed because of its political importance and beautiful alpine plants. This Pass, 4,310 meters above sea level, is a favorite of thrill-seekers and nature lovers. The winding roads of the Nathula Pass lead to the beautiful Chumbi Valley. From there, it&#8217;s just a short climb up to the old trading post of Yang.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Also read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/blog\/places-to-visit-sikkim-in-october\/\">October Travel Guide: Must-See Places in Sikkim<\/a><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"the-best-time-to-visit-nathu-la-pass\"><\/span><strong>The Best time to visit Nathu La Pass<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In the middle of winter, it would get as cold as -25 degrees Celsius.
