| Tripura |
Tripura is a tiny state in the North-East of the country.
It has extensive international border with
Bangladesh and, in
fact, 85% of its perimeter is international border with rest being
common boundary with Assam and Mizoram to the East.
This ancient
land of mysterious past represents a composite culture with several
ethnic groups residing in the state. Though the cultural heritage of
one community differs from the other, the manifested efforts have
mingled them into a single whole, giving birth to a unique cultural
genre. Tripura can be termed as a 'laboratory' of exotic cultural
synthesis. Tripura, quite off the beaten track, is a
storehouse of tribal crafts and culture as well as music and
dancing. Tripura has a large number of attractive tourist sites
including religious sites of Hindu’s and Buddhists.
Considering the
proximity of Tripura with Bangladesh, it is more convenient for
foreign nationals to enter Tripura via Bangladesh with an
appropriate visa. |
