Here the main attraction is the river Rishi. Oneside is West Bengal and another bank is Sikkim. Diverse types of butterflies, dragonflies, birds are available. Dont expect luxurious room and food. Enjoy the nature. Becareful from snakes specially when move during night and early morning. Roads with uneven slope so skillful driver is needed.

The road is pathetic we almost had an accident when we were returning back ...when the homestay owner knew that the road is in such dangerous situation he should not be inviting tourists .
