Darjeeling has several British-style public schools, which attract pupils from all over India and a few neighbouring
countries. The varied culture of the town reflects its diverse demographic milieu comprising Lepcha,
Khampa, Gorkha, Newar, Sherpa, Bhutia, Bengali[6] and other mainland Indian ethno-linguistic groups. Darjeeling,
alongside its neighbouring town of Kalimpong, was the centre of the Gorkhaland movement in the 1980s and the
summer of 2017.
The recorded history of the town starts from the early 19th century when the colonial administration
under the British Raj set up a sanatorium and a military depot in the region. Subsequently, extensive tea
plantations were established in the region and tea growers developed hybrids of black tea and created
new fermentation techniques. The resultant distinctive Darjeeling tea is internationally recognised and
ranks among the most popular black teas in the world.[5] The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway connects
the town with the plains and has some of the few steam locomotives still in service in India.
