|
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. | |
