Lachung; Yamthang really means the mud meadow which is rather a misnomer as there are grassy clearings in the forest both above & below the rest house. The latter is built on the same plan as that at Sharithang Nis, near the junction of 2 considerable streams which together form the Ho Chu. The valley a large one & rich forests on both sides & is decidedly pretty.
