Baba mandir (13,123 ft ) is located about 50 kms from Gangtok and 8 kms before Nathu la pass. This is usually visited on the way while going to Nathula pass. The temple area is maintained by Indian Army. The baba mandir is build in the name of Harbajan Singh Baba who was a soldier in Indian army. It is believed that the soul of Harbhajan Singh guards the place from enemies. There is also a beautiful Shiva Idol about half km distance from Baba Mandir, along the foothills of Namang chho. The Shiva idol adds to the beauty and serenity of the area and provides a hermitage feeling at the backdrop of Namang chho waterfalls. The Shiva idol is 12 feet tall and made of high quality fiberglass material.
Baba mandir is a beautiful place – amidst the mountains – extremely cold. However, unlike nathula, photography is allowed here. So you can take plenty of pictures of the temple, mountain, shiva statue, Namong chho waterfall, landscape and others.
