Yes, you have received the right advise. Even in summer this year, access to Nathula Pass was closed due to excess snowfall. It’s not unusual for access to Tsongo Lake and beyond being closed in peak winter ( which includes January)

Hi, It should be ok to visit, if no rains and roads are not blocked. Snow would not be there as of now. And roads are quite good, so you would be able to visit! Enjoy scenic beauty there!

While high altitude is difficult for young children, I did see a few infants while I was there. The best bet would be to check with your doctor and take his advise. Since yopu are going in June / July, the weather will not be very bad and you may not see snow. From that perspective, you don't have to worry.

Three ways... 1. Ask your hotel. They will oblige. 2. Ask your car driver. They all are experts. 3. DIY. Do it Yourself. Carry the documents to the tourist office and apply one day prior to your visit date. Then go and collect it in the morning of the visit day. My advice will be to outsource these hassles while you are free to stroll on the beautiful MG Road or the the nearby places.

Yes you can get the amul milk, but not every where. U need to ask from nearby shops or ask ur hotel to arrange for you

Yes take ur daughter and family along. U will love this place. Do remember to keep winter cloth for child. You and family can rent coats for inr 100

It is not clear whether you are going to visit only baba mandir or the same and Nathula pass! If you have planned to visit Nathula as well then there is no necessity to get separate permission. For visit to baba mandir (new) only, no prior permission is needed. Your travel agent will manage and take care of that.

There are always pros and cons of every season. Though you will be enjoying the weather, but you may face difficulty in traveling to different places because of snow.
