They
are called the seven sisters. They are the seven beautiful states of
Northeast India. These states have not come up as tourist destination on
the tourist map. But they have emmence potential for travel and tourism.
The small but densely covered hills of these states are a mystery which
await to be discovered and explored. The tradition, culture, festivals
everything has remained covered and is slowly opening up.
The
Buddhist pilgraimages of Bihar or the temples of Konark, Bhubaneswar,
Puri in Orissa are visited by pilgrims as well as the tourists. The
Chillika lake is the largest lagoon and watching sunset over the lake
has its own pleasure. Visit the beaches of Digha in West Bengal and Puri
in Orissa, their beauty is sure to hang in your mind for years to come.
One
of the major tourist destination in East has been the Calcutta. Calcutta
came up as a major city of the region when it was made the capital city
by the East India company. Calcutta has retained the historical
splendour which is reflected in the buildings of the place. Today
Calcutta is the capital of West Bengal and one of the major port in
east.
The sunderban deltas are also a major tourist
attraction. The great Sundari tree (Mangrove) thrive on the silts
deposited by the Ganges before it meets the ocean. These trees form a
part of the Sunderban National park where the Royal Bengal Tigers are
found. Also, the crocodile and mighty pythons have made these deltas as
their home.
In
this region only one can visit Bodh Gaya, Rajgir, Nalanda and Patna etc.
These places are part of Buddhist tourist circuit. Most of them are
closely related with the life of Buddha and at some places last remains
of this great preacher is kept. Thus, trhe eastern region also has many
things to offer, iteneries for some have already been made and some wait
for their turn to come.
