Located in West Sikkim district, Rabdentse is regarded as an archeological site that truly peeps into the history of Sikkim. Towards the reign of Tenzing Namgyal, the frequent Gorkha attack of Prithivi Narayan Shaha from the western boarder finally got the capital shifted to Tumlong . Rabdentse was acknowledged to be the second capital of Sikkim. With passing time, Rabdentse was desolated and ravages of time turned the royal capital into ruins. Rabdentse ruins have been preserved by the Indian Archeological Society. From the top of the monument, you can witness the picturesque sight that scans across the subterranean valley to the baffling heights of Kanchendzonga.
