  • Doklam in Sikkim will be open to tourists from September 2025, eight years after the India-China standoff.
  • It is 68 km from Gangtok and lies at the meeting point of India, Bhutan, and China, at 13,780 feet above sea level.
  • Doklam has become a sensitive area in 2017 when China tried to build a road in Bhutan’s claimed land, and India stepped in to help Bhutan.
  • The Defence Ministry has chosen Doklam as one of three battlefield tourism spots in Sikkim to show important military sites.
  • The other two places are Nathu La and Cho La, where India and China had clashes in 1967.
