The Lepchas, an indigenous race of the Darjeeling District of West Bengal, Sikkim and the Illam Himalayas are basically nature lover and divided into four groups however linguistically and culturally they remain as one. There is no history of Lepcha migration. The Lepchas' songs, dances and music reflect the old ways of Lepcha life, their tradition, culture, ancient religion, customs, manners, characters, civilisation; their joy, sorrow and surrounding environments.
