Also referred to as ‘God’s own Garden’ the residents of this tiny village have made a collective effort to keep the village neat and clean. The sight of the locals picking up leaves and throwing garbage in the bin and cleaning the roads is very common. The village has a toilet in every house, and children are taught at school to keep their surroundings clean.
The village offers a trek to the living root bridge at Riwai, breathtaking views of Bangladesh plains, the sight of the natural balancing rock, picturesque natural beauty, and more. Especially in the monsoons, the beauty of the village quadruples when there is lush greenery all around.
