Tripura log huts draw tourists, total of 38 log huts to set up across State

AGARTALA: Far from the humdrum of regular life amidst nature, Tripura's log huts are attracting a lot of tourists which are worth experiencing. Seeing the response of the tourists, the TTDCL ('Tripura Tourism Development Corporation) is setting up similar log huts in Sipahijala Reserve Forest and Baramura Eco-Park. A total of 38 log huts shall be set up across the State.

Located amidst the lap of Mother Nature at about 47 km from the State's capital city of Agartala, the log huts were constructed by the TTDCL. Not only do they blend with its natural ambience, these huts are also fully equipped with all the modern facilities.

After months of lockdown, these log huts are opened for the tourists now.

Tourists can order their choicest of food items in their dwellings or they can also dine in the restaurants. Only a few days after the huts were inaugurated early this year, they had to be shut down due to the pandemic. Already tourists have been visiting the ecopark to experience the serene life there.

Tourists mostly arrive here in the afternoon to enjoy the evening here with their family and friends. After reopening on October 1, the park has been receiving good response, said its manager Arup Paul. Besides staying in the log huts, the early morning walk in the midst of the wooden path through the green canopy and the bamboo groves is no less than a dreamlike experience.

Tripura Tourism Minister Pranajit Singha Roy said, "The State government has developed several places for adventure tourism.

''Tripura will soon become a tourist destination; it will increase the revenue of the State and also provide jobs to many unemployed youngsters. Many tourism development projects are underway."

Development of tourism infrastructure and service will strengthen the rural economy and provide employment, boosting Tripura's economic growth and development, added the Minister. (Agencies)
