The rays of the sun touch the mountain peak early in the morning to give it a golden glow making it a treat for hundreds of tourists who witness it at 4:30 am from the Tiger hills of Darjeeling. The third tallest peak in the world, the magnificent Kanchenjunga mountain was believed to be the tallest mountain in the world before 1852. The locals consider the mountain a sacred place, an abode of Gods and even believe that a yeti (Himalayan demon), called Nee-gued still roams its slopes(Link).
