Flower Exhibition Centre, Gangtok

The Ridge is a flat wonderful stretch of road just above the Gangtok Town. It would be about 20 minutes walk from MG Marg main market. The Ridge is flanked on one side by the White Hall as well as the Chief Minister's Residence, and on the other side by a wonderful gate with pagoda like top.    The White Hall is a two storey building of British architecture built in 1932 in memory of the first British Political Officer Sir James Claude White. It once used to be a venue of important functions, but today it lies more as a historical building with not much activities.
