Happy Valley Tea Estate

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Happy Valley Tea Estate is a tea estate in Darjeeling district in the Indian state of West Bengal. The estate was established in 1854. David Wilson, an Englishman, had named the garden Wilson Tea Estate and by 1860 had started cultivation of tea. In 1903 the estate was taken over by an Indian, Tarapada Banerjee, an aristocrat from Hooghly. In 1929, Banerjee bought the Windsor tea estate nearby, and merged the two estates under the name of Happy Valley tea estate.

The bushes in the garden are very old — the minimum age is 80 years, and some are 150 years old. Very few re-plantations having been done in the recent past. This tea estate is the closest estate to Darjeeling town, and tourists often visit the garden.
