It is one of the smallest states in India. Sikkim is bordered by the Tibet Autonomous Region of China to the north and northeast, by Bhutan to the southeast, by the Indian state of West Bengal to the south, and by Nepal to the west. The capital is Gangtok, in the southeastern part of the state.<br \/><br \/><\/p><p>A part of the Eastern Himalayas, Sikkim is notable for its biodiversity, including alpine and subtropical climates, as well as being a host to Kangchenjunga, the highest peak in India and the third highest on Earth. Sikkim's capital and largest city is Gangtok. Almost 35% of the state is covered by the Khangchendzonga National Park.<br \/><br \/>Long a sovereign political entity, Sikkim became a protectorate of India in 1950 and an Indian state in 1975. Its small size notwithstanding, Sikkim is of great political and strategic importance for India because of its location along several international boundaries. Its area is 2,740 square miles (7,096 square km) and its population (2011) is 607,688.<\/p>\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img width=\"900\" height=\"1126\" src=\"https:\/\/sheyun.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/map.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sheyun.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/map.jpg 900w, https:\/\/sheyun.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/map-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/sheyun.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/map-818x1024.jpg 818w, https:\/\/sheyun.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/map-768x961.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sheyun.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/map-600x751.jpg 600w, https:\/\/sheyun.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/map-760x951.jpg 760w, https:\/\/sheyun.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/map-370x463.jpg 370w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img width=\"587\" height=\"414\" src=\"https:\/\/sheyun.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/logo.png\" alt=\"logo-sikkim\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sheyun.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/logo.png 587w, https:\/\/sheyun.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/logo-300x212.png 300w, https:\/\/sheyun.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/logo-370x261.png 370w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 100vw, 587px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t<h2>People and Culture<\/h2>\t\t\r\n\t\tThe people of Sikkim consist of three ethnic groups, the Lepcha, Bhutia, and Nepali.
