The state is divided into four districts: Eastern, Southern, Northern, and Western Sikkim. The most populous district is the Eastern, which includes the capital city of Gangtok, and is followed by the Southern and Western districts. The Northern region is sparsely populated due to its tough environment and steep mountains. Sikkim is unrivalled in its beauty, nestled along the Himalayan foothills between Tibet and India's plains, isolated from the rest of the world by massive mountains. The rich history, mystic religion, gorgeous monasteries, and age-old rituals of East Sikkim all have a fascination that is difficult to equal anywhere else on the planet.

Sikkim's population is made up of Lepchas (the indigenous people), Bhutias (migrants from Tibet), and Nepalese. Seventy percent of the 5.50 lakh people in Sikkim are Nepalese, with sixteen percent Bhutias and fourteen percent Lepchas. Hinduism and Buddhism are the two main religions practised in Sikkim.

Sikkim is drained by a large number of perennial rivers. However, the Teesta and the Rangit are the two main river systems. The Teesta is a significant Himalayan river that rises above sea level in Sikkim's glaciers at an elevation of over 8500 metres. The river is generated principally in Chungthang by the confluence of two hill streams, Lachen Chu and Lachung Chu, which originate in high terrain.
